last-supper-1

The last meals of famous death row inmates is well-documented. But what was the last thing ingested by deceased celebrities and historical figures?

Filmmaker Gus Filgate created Last Supper to help us find out. The short film series takes us on a wild ride of food preparation and trippy soundtracks, while trying to imagine the last meals of famous people.

So far, we’ve seen Julius Caesar’s assumed last meal of mussels, shrimp and mutton, Jimi Hendrix’s tuna sandwich, and Napoleon’s steak and eggs. You can follow the ongoing series here.

Brought to us by Moscow-based artist Nataliya Platonova, The Last Supper is an illustration series of interesting characters sitting down for a meal.

As if the concept of the original Last Supper wasn’t grim enough, Platonova takes her series a bit further with noticeably depressed and morbid characters sitting down for a meal, which in most cases, involves some sort of cannibalism.
