'Last supper' of 13 Michelin-starred chefs…

Reardon is particularly associated with his portraits of chefs for the Observer Food Monthly for which this commission based on Leonardo's Last Supper was made. The photograph is not a digital construct and was the only frame in which the brie thrown by Marcus Wareing was captured appearing to hover by chance for a fraction of a second over the head of Gordon Ramsay in the centre of the composition.

13 Chefs: 

• Tom Aikens (1970-),
• Chef. Raymond René Blanc (1949-), Chef and restaurateur.
• Michael Caines (1969-), Chef.
• Eric Chavot (1969-), Chef.
