Yes, that is correct. However,I was in fact not so much referring to "The 
Last Supper"specifically, but to Giotto. I know: not exactly the same time, 
but you know how the brain functions and makes connections.
The background reminded me strongly of some details of Giotto's work. I have 
not been able to find on the web exactly what I am referring to (i.e. the 
so-called pradella, i.e. small paintings below a major fresco) and which I 
saw treated in a couple of fairly recent documentaries on ARTE. But the 
frescoes with some architectural details show exactly what I mean: a 
detailed perspective that is not always very consistent with the rules.
