Last Supper Parody

(Leonardo Da Vinci, Last Supper)

(The Expendables 2 movie poster)

Leonardo Da Vinci's Last Supper was painted between 1405-1496. The painting is in Milan Italy at a monastery. The Last Super is another recognizable work of Da Vinci's that has been copied numerous times. 

One of the latest parodies of Da Vinci's Last Supper is a movie poster for The Expendables 2 coming out in August. The photo depicts one person in the center and twelve people surrounding him. The man in the center would represent "Jesus" in the painting and the other twelve would represent the "12 disciples". 

Even though the movie poster is a photoshopped photograph and Da Vinci's Last Supper is oil on plaster, it is pretty self explanatory why the two are directly related.
