Mona Lis or La Giocondo is a Leanado Davinci's Popular painting made on wood with oil paints . It is on display in france in Musee du louvre . It depicts a woman looking directly at you 3 Quaters full . The Best feature and most mysterious of the work is her smile . Which is described as enigmatic. What do you feel about the painting and is the smile a really big deal?? Look at the picture once before u decide lol!!

I am a fan of Monalisa, thats the reason I named my daughter Monalisa. Some claim that Monalisa is Davincis own modified image. Any ideas about it ?

my prof shared some ideas of who she might be..some say she was this "common person" (middle class or lower---im not sure)..some say its his love..but the most common assumption was mona lisa being the female version of davinci...i wanna do some research on this though..

oh some say Mona lisa showed depictions of davinci they successfully combined both leanardo's portrait as well as davinci's to give similar features and drawing style he would look like her if he had shaved his beard. Another theory suggests that Mona lisa was a maid working in a palace she feel in love with davinci and he drew her portrait i recommend you seeing the picture i have put up and comment on it . its an animation i know you will likit

well, we've studied paintings for my history of world arts subject and the smile did make a lot of people wonder..when ur an art critic, every detail matters..there are symbolisms and everything..so for those who are like, totally into paintings and all that---its a big deal..coz there's meaning behind the painting..=)

well some off have confronted to have seem mona lisa similar to a man her face is half like ram and half her femine side so the two smiles combine to form a really mysterious smile what do you think of the last two theories

Let's just say that I am not all that concerned about it like most people do and make a big deal out of it. I think it is a great painting and that is all.
