Organizers say an act during the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony featuring an LGBTQ+ icon flanked by drag artists did not depict "The Last Supper."
The painting, called "Salvator Mundi," Italian for "Savior of the World," is one of fewer than 20 paintings by Leonardo known to exist and the only one in private hands.
A painting thought by scholars to be one of only a few by Leonardo da Vinci to have survived the half-millennia since the artist's death is set to be auctioned Wednesday in New York, where it is guaranteed to sell for at least $100 million.
A new multimedia installation in Manhattan will offer new ways to see and interpret Leonardo Da Vinci's "The Last Supper.''
It's the first major restoration of the McKim-designed space since the building opened in 1906. It will reopen Oct. 30.
