I was on a business trip in Italy and had an opportunity to see the Last Supper. Unfortunately, it was a bit of a grueling, short trip with little time to see the sights. I remember catching my flight in the middle of the night.

Anyway, I am a huge fan. My favorite is The Annunciation.

The only one I’ve seen in person is “Ginevra de Benci”, which is in the National Gallery in DC, and I believe the only painting of his on public display west of the Atlantic. It’s one of the very few he completed, and oddly is painted on both sides (both sides are displayed).

I remember coming around a corner in the National Gallery and seeing Salvadore Dali's The Last Supperi. It was unlike any painting I had seen. It seemed to glow or be somehow be illuminated. How he did that - it was amazing.
