Arts: Mona Lisa

Have you ever feel that you are dedicated all your time in only one think??

Well thats basically what a really great artist do, but it was the most  part of is life ,we are talking about Leonardo Davinci and this ane thing that he spend a lot of time is one of the most famous and even for a lot of people, the most important piece of art in the world.

We are talking about the Mona Lisa,is a half-length portrait of a woman.The painting, thought to be a portrait of Lisa Gherardini, the wife of Francesco del Giocondo, is in oil on a white Lombardy poplar panel, and is believed to have been painted between 1503 and 1506, although Leonardo may have continued working on it as late as 1517. It was acquired by King Francis I of France and is now the property of the French Republic, on permanent display at The Louvre museum in Paris since 1797.

The ambiguity of the subject's expression, which is frequently described as enigmatic, the monumentality of the composition, the subtle modeling of forms and the atmospheric illusionism were novel qualities that have contributed to the continuing fascination and study of the work.
