In «The Last Supper» Blek le Rat portrays himself as Jesus. The motif first appeared in his work in 2008, at the same time as his subjects «Jesus», «Lady Diana and Angel» and «The Violinist». In addition to the canvas work presented here, the motif is also found in the artist's print work. It is not only signed on the front but also on the back in ballpoint pen by hand - rare for originals by Blek.
We would like to thank Mr Tobias Bastian, Galerie Urbanes Leipzig, for the kind remarks via
