COMMENT: Community Refectory and Da Vinci's Last Supper

Dear William,
Thank you for the thoughts.
The minds of the monks may not have been on the Last Supper at
this hour of 12 o'clock above.
Lots of chuckles at your insight.
Yours.
Donald

Dear Father Donald,
I cannot help being struck by the similarity of the presentation of the Community in the photograph on your Blog with that of Leonardi Da Vinci's Last Supper:
six disciples either side of centre, meal prepared, with even the stools giving the effect of the trestle table!

I have an alabaster model of the Da Vinci and thus look upon it each day. I shall similarly treasure this photograph!

(Forgive me...)
William
