Why did Leonardo da vinci paint this?
Because his employer requested him to do so. Leonardo worked for Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, for nearly eighteen years (1482-99). The Duke decided he wanted this particular religious scene painted and Leonardo, decided painting it made perfect financial sense.
Why is it falling apart?
Leonardo da Vinci, tried using new materials for the Last Supper. Instead of using tempera on wet plaster (the preferred method of fresco painting, and one which had worked successfully for centuries), he thought he'd give using dry plaster a whirl. His experiment resulted in a more varied palette, which was Leonardo's intent. What he hadn't taken into account was that this method wasn't at all durable. The painted plaster began to flake off the wall almost immediately, and people have been attempting to restore it ever since.

This was categorized under 'The Last Supper', so I'm going to conclude that you were referring to that.

The proceeding day, Jesus was set to be crucified, and hence the celebration of Easter.
