It took three trips to Milan, Italy, before I finally got to see one of the most revered paintings, The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci, the greatest painter of the Renaissance period.

It has certainly been a long wait, but all I got in the end were 15 miserable minutes and a viewing experience shared with 12 other people – those are the rules for each session.
