The Circle Of Light
While “The Last Supper” was being created, halos were often added to the heads of Jesus Christ and his disciples. This is the shining circle that shows that a figure is meant to be divine and holy. But while most of the disciples would be upgraded with a halo, Judas would not get one, due to his betrayal of Christ. Da Vinci made “The Last Supper” during an incredibly religious period, so you can imagine the surprise of his contemporaries when he unveiled a Christian painting with no halos!
