Andy Warhol’s The Last Supper (1986)
One of Warhol’s final and most profound series, The Last Supper reimagines da Vinci’s masterpiece through the lens of Pop Art. Created just months before his death, Warhol’s reinterpretation blends religion, repetition, branding, and mortality—all central themes in his work.
What makes it striking isn’t just the sacred imagery—it’s the juxtaposition of commercial logos (like Dove soap or GE) layered over divine iconography. Warhol wasn’t just remixing art history; he was questioning the commodification of faith and the blurred lines between the sacred and the superficial.
📍Originally commissioned for a Milan exhibition across from Santa Maria delle Grazie (where the original Last Supper resides), this series is as much a personal reckoning as it is a cultural critique.
Pop meets piety—Warhol’s final act.
