The painting was painted in the 18th century by the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci. Presumably, this famous picture was painted to commemorate the birth of Mona Lisa's second son. Many art researchers have identified the mysterious woman as Lisa Geradini, the wife of Florentine merchant Francisco de Giocondo. The artwork is preserved in the Louvre Museum in France. According to the Louvre Museum, about 70% of tourists visit the Mona Lisa alone.
Leonardo da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa on a piece of pine wood sometime between 1503 and 1508. No other painting in history has been so popular. The only reason for that is Mona Lisa's curious smile
Of course, there are many ideas about the Mona Lisa. Some researchers believe that the Mona Lisa is Leonardo da Vinci's mother, while others believe that the Mona Lisa is Leonardo da Vinci's girlfriend. However, a recent computer test showed that Leonardo da Vinci had some similarities with the Mona Lisa. So it is thought that maybe the Mona Lisa painting is neither a boy nor a girl. After the publication of The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown, the famous author of the present day, the perception of common people about Mona Lisa has started to change and new mysteries have been created in the minds of people.
