The statement about "The Last Supper" refers to a work by Leonardo da Vinci, which is housed in Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan and not the Basilica di San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice. However, if we are considering the famous "The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci, the correct answer regarding the use of light would be:
c. He uses one natural and one supernatural light source.
In da Vinci's work, light is employed to create a focus on Jesus at the center, with natural light illuminating the scene, while also implying a sense of divine or supernatural illumination around him. If you are referring to a different artwork, please clarify, and I can provide a more accurate response based on that context.
