Yes, he was. He didn't believe it to be right to inflict pain against others.

"Truly man is the king of beasts, for his brutality exceeds theirs. We live by the death of others: we are burial places! I have from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I will look on the murder of animals as they now look on the murder of men." ~ Leonardo da vinci

What is the function of the painting the last supper?

There are hundreds if not thousands of paintings depicting this New Testament scene. Assuming you mean the famous work by Leonardo da Vinci it is a wall painting (a mural) in the dining room of a convent. Every time the monks sat down to eat they would have the feeling to be at the table of Christ.


Who painted The Last Supper?

The famous artwork was done by Leonardo da Vinci as a wall mural between 1495 and 1498. A detailed oil painting copy was done by Leonardo's contemporary Giovanni Pietro Rizzoli (Giampietrino) around 1520.An earlier painting with the same title was done by artist Giotto di Bondone (Giotto) in 1306. The two depictions are not similar in design or appearance, as Giotto's work shows the apostles sitting on both sides of a rectangular table.(see related question)

How does Leonardo distinguish Judas from the rest of the apostles in the Last Supper?

As I recall Judas was facing away from Jesus. Perhaps this was an indication of shame or fear in Leonardo's interperation. Firstmate Leonardo used several ways to distinguish Judas Iscariot from the rest of the apostles in his depiction of the last supper. Some of his ways were not traditionally used by others who had painted the same scene in the past, however, they made the painting more dramatic. First, Judas is holding a bad of silver in his right hand. This would symbolize the money he was paid to betray Jesus. Also, he is reaching for the same bread as Jesus with his left hand. This would signify Jesus' words that "the first to eat of the bread will be the one to betray me."
