An Italian tech firm is set to post a high-resolution scan of Leonardo da Vinci's mural The Last Supper online this weekend, about three months after an Italian man's announcement of mysterious findings within the image sparked renewed interest.
This latest posting is being spearheaded by Slavisa Pesci, the computer analyst and amateur scholar who, in July, announced that when he superimposed the famous painting — Leonardo's depiction of Jesus's last meal with his disciples — with its mirror image, he had detected what appeared to be a woman holding a child next to the figure of Jesus and the transformation of two apostles into knights.

The high-resolution scan can be viewed at Haltadefinizione.com beginning October 27, 2007 09:30 am CEST (03:30 am EST)
