![]() Collectively, they illustrate an idea to enlighten us. Many protagonists in films are considered fiction, when in fact they are actually composite representations of more than just a single real person. Modern film has picked up on this idea of using a composite character. Women have sung for years the old tune, "would you rather be loved or be respected by a man?" Leonardo chose to respect women, and so I don't believe he ever had a sexually active affair with Lisa Giocondo, although he may have had deep feelings for her. I believe he was demonstrating in this portrait that enlightenment need not conflict with earlier themes of "goddessliness," but was in fact underscoring the phenomenon for people of the Renaissance. Has it occurred to anyone that the woman in this painting, while initially Lisa del Giocondo as the model or sitter, ended up being a composite representation of many women, of the feminine itself? I believe the thing that touches heart strings most strongly is an allusion to the godliness of the woman, perhaps harking back to a goddess of creation and procreation, which almost every culture has had.Ī purpose Leonard da Vinci shared with his era was to forward and achieve enlightenment. Mona Lisa is supposed to be actually a painting formed from the face of a man or male figure. I'm hoping that in browsing the internet I could find real answers that could help me to finish my thesis in school about this topic. But I think its impossible since there are many speculations about the mystery smile of Mona Lisa. I'm seeking a concrete answer that would really answer my questions. Is she actually smiling? I don't think so.Īctually, many questions keep on bothering on my mind about the mystery smile of Mona Lisa and why it is a very big deal to other people. Having this portrait in a house represents "we are always watching you" or some kind of cult of "people with a long established power". If you look at her long enough, you will see that the expression in all his faces are always changing. It looks like a real person looking at you all the time. Check it.įor me, the figure in the portrait is a witch. One thing I observed is she didn't have nails. So she is actually Da Vinci's dream girl. So actually she is sick but happy to see someone close to her. If you cover her lips and look to the eyes, it seems she is crying. This is the reason she has swollen eyes and she has a painful smile. Mona Lisa's eyes indicate that she has a disease that is related to cholesterol. There are many artist nowadays, but Da Vinci's work is incredible. Whatever must be the mystery behind the painting of Mona Lisa, it has been created so wonderfully.
