Leonardo da Vinci's genius is undisputed, and his spectacularly successful posterity belies the true state of his affairs when he began work on his masterpiece, The Last Supper. In Leonardo and The Last Supper​, Ross King unveils stories that are embedded in the painting and looks critically at a number of myths and popular misconceptions brought to fame by The Da Vinci Code. Not only does the painting tell a story from the Gospels, but it has its own story of one of the world's most brilliant minds.
