About the Book
Why does a portrait of a Florentine housewife, painted over 500 years ago, continue to enchant the world? Who is the Mona Lisa, really? Why is she smiling? And why did Leonardo agree to paint her to begin with? All of these questions are addressed in this thoroughly researched and highly accessible book, which shatters the prevailing Mona Lisa myths by boldly declaring that Leonardo painted not one, but two versions of the world's most famous portrait.
