Book in advance your visit to the Last Supper, a few subway stops far from the Best Western Hotel Madison.

The Leonardo’s Last Supper is one of the most important and most popular works of art, affecting many artists from contemporary ones to Warhol.

The experimental tempera on plaster technique chosen by Leonardo suffered from its limitats related to the incompatibility with the walls and the damp of the refectory of Santa Maria delle Grazie, which caused a degradation stopped by the recent restoration from 1978 to 1999.

The work has been declared World Heritage by UNESCO in 1980 with the bordering church and the Dominican convent.
