Mona Lisa

It is one of the most famous works of art in the entire history of painting. The mysterious smile of the Mona Lisa, also known as La Gioconda, has become the subject of much speculation and legend. Recent research suggests that the smile belongs to a woman after childbirth. They have found traces of the original painting in which the Mona Lisa has a thin scarf over her face, worn by Florentine women during childbirth. However, it is still not known whether the portrait of the woman in the painting belongs to the wife of the Florentine banker del Gioconda or to a courtesan. In fact, the first written records of who is in the painting do not appear until 50 years after it was made. The painting, completed in 1506, can now be found in the Louvre in Paris. Prevailing color of this fine art print is dark and its shape is portrait. This image is printed on demand - you can choose material, size and finishing.
