Actually, the Last Supper was a common theme at the time.
[It portrays the famous speech made by Jesus Christ when he told his prediction that one of his closest men (Judas) would betray him.]
The reason Leonardo's painting really became famous is that it was painted on a wall in what was then the dining hall of a monastery and Leonardo showed Jesus and the disciples sitting among the other diners, sort of like the head table. He showed the actual everyday plates, cups, and linens that the monks were using then, putting Jesus in the same place-- doing the same things-- as the monks, which was unique. Elsewhere, Jesus was shown as separate or living in a distant land, elevated from the common people.
The Last Supper was painted by a very popular artist of the time, Leonardo da vinci. Not only that, but it was a painting of a very sacred event relating to the Christian faith, which was a thriving religion during his time.
The last supper was not a "renaissance" it was the last time Jesus shared a meal with his deciples and the basis for the Christian "Holly Communion".
It was however the subject of some renaissance paintings/murals.
There are hundreds of paintings depicting the Last Supper. Those which were painted during the Renaissance period are renaissance, the others are not.
