DALLAS OBSERVER
By Eric Nicholson
TEXAS --- The Christian Arts Museum in Fort Worth this weekend... sign outside tells the truth: there really is a life-sized wax display of Da Vinci's "The Last Supper." The display takes up an entire room and features a beatific, flaxen-haired Jesus flanked by his 12 disciples, who are in an uproar following his prediction that one of them (Judas, carrying a money pouch) would betray him. It was created by wax sculptor Katherine Stubergh in the 1950s at the behest of William Fleming, a Fort Worth oil tycoon who, according to CAC's website, intended it as a "gift to all Christians."
