This Image was Doctored

The Getty Museum started a hobby anyone can take part in by recreating famous works of art with only the props at hand. Most people have to select a painting that has only one or maybe two people in it, but the staff at Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris get together to work anyway, so they went for recreating The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci. Brilliant! If you recall, the medical staff from MASH did this in the 1970 movie. (via reddit)

Do you know what Leonardo said just before painting "The Last Supper"?

"OK, whoever wants to be in the picture, get on that side of the table."

Obviously, the one in the middle is the surgeon.
