À propos de ce contenu audio

This instant New York Times bestseller reveals the secrets embedded in Leonardo Da Vinci's best-known Christian piece The Last Supper.

Milan, 1497: Leonardo is completing The Last Supper. Pope Alexander VI is determined to execute him after realizing that the painting contains clues to a baffling—and blasphemous—message that he is driven to decode. The Holy Grail and the Eucharistic Bread are missing, there is no meat on the table, and the apostles, shockingly, are portraits of well-known heretics—and none of them are depicted with halos. And why has the artist painted himself into the scene with his back turned toward Jesus? The clues to Leonardo's greatest puzzle are right before your eyes...

Tightly paced and atmospheric, The Secret Supper is a dazzling historical thriller with a unique vision of both Leonardo da Vinci's genius and his masterpiece—which you will never look at in the same way again.©2006 Javier Sierra; (P)2006 Simon & Schuster, Inc.

Commentaires

"In exposing heretical elements visible in Leonardo da Vinci's painting, The Secret Supper will astonish and enlighten readers. Javier Sierra serves up a plausible and intriguing story, highly seasoned with well-researched lore about the beliefs of medieval Cathars, whose faith included secret teachings allegedly confided to the most beloved companions of Jesus -- Mary Magdalene and John the Evangelist."

-- Margaret L. Starbird, author of The Woman with the Alabaster Jar and Mary Magdalene, Bride in Exile
