Minecraft player creates The Last Supper in-game

Recently, a Minecraft Redditor called u/DaCrazyRacoon created and posted a superb map art replica of Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting The Last Supper. The post contained two pieces of media: a picture of the finished map art and a GIF showcasing a timelapse. The former artwork is quite detailed as well as accurate to the actual painting.

Since the sandbox game is over a decade old, players have devised a method to create stunning works of art using maps. They manually place blocks to make massive artworks that are later seen on an in-game map. This was the exact approach used by the Redditor who made the masterpiece featured above. Judging by the first picture, the entire map art covers 72 blocks. This proves the canvas must have been huge inside the game's world.
