| Mona Lisa after Leonardo DaVinci Oil Painting on Canvas by Beatriz Socorro Work in Progress |
The centuries-old enigma of the Mona Lisa smile...finally SOLVED!!
Well, I have to admit there are also other versions according to some art historians.
Some think it might be Leonardo´s model and also lover: Salai
It is no secret that Leonardo was gay.
Some think it might have been Leonardo himself, in drag, doing a self-portrait, in which case the smile simply means: "If you suckers only knew ".
But I believe that, even if it´s Salai or Leonardo´s self-portrait in drag, the enigma of the smile itself is best explained by my interpretation. I mean, look at the swollen and semi-closed eyelids and the goofy smile. What else could it be?
