The Last Fiesta from [Pale Horse Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kingston-villa) is a unique tribute to Da Vinci's Last Supper.

Chris Parks, the design studio illustrator and graphic designer, created a series of 12 skateboarding decks that once collectively side by side, create his take on The Last Supper. Instead of Apostles, Parks re-created Jesus as "Christos Mysterio" and his Apostles. All of the members of The Last Fiesta are featured wearing Lucha Libre masks, giving them a less-than-holy look.

Instead of the traditional wine from Da Vinci's painting, Parks added another twist through putting Mexican liquor brands such as Modelo and Don Julio tequila alongside the famous [Corona](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corona-3k-center) and [Dos Equis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ni-perdon-ni-permiso) beers.

Parks' The Last Fiesta is a unique tribute to Da Vinci's The Last Supper as well as to Christianity, making it a must-see for anyone who can appreciate modern interpretations.
