I am looking for a historical piece of artwork...
In Milan, Italy (I think that the spelling is Milano, but pronounced ma lawn) it took thirteen nuns seven years to finish this tapestry /embroidery of "The Last Supper". This piece of art is supposed to be close to or over three hundred years old. I can not find anything on the Internet about this particular piece of art. It is woven of thread. If there is an art dealer out there that could tell me about it or were it is then that would be appreciated. I would really like to locate it and inquire about a purchase. Unfortunately this is the only relevant information that i have on it. Help Please. (links, pictures, document's,owner,location) P.S. This piece of art was not destroyed and is still in existence as of recent (last twenty years) HOW COULD I CONTACT THE VATICAN OR A DIVISION OF THE CHURCH THAT WOULD MAYBE KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT THIS? IS THERE AN OFFICIAL WEBSITE FOR THE VATICAN?
What you are looking for is Castagno’s "Last Supper." It was commissioned for a convent of Benedictine nuns.
There is another tapestry by Bernart van Orley that is owned by the Duke of Alba; [Duveen Brothers, New York, New York]; acquired by Philip Lehman in 1913.
