The Secrets Of The Mona Lisa
Portrait of Mrs. Lisa del Giocondo (Portrait di Monna Lisa del Giocondo) was painted by Leonardo da Vinci about 1503-1519. It is believed to be a portrait of Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo, the silk merchant from Florence. del Giocondo in Italian sounds like fun or playing. According to the writings of the biographer Giorgio Vasari, Leonardo da Vinci wrote this portrait for 4 years, but it set unfinished.
Mona Lisa or La Gioconda — painting of the great artist Leonardo da Vinci is the most mysterious piece of art to date. It is associated with so many mysteries and secrets that even the most seasoned critics sometimes don't know what is actually drawn on this picture.
One of the mysteries is that under ultraviolet and infrared radiation, this picture looks completely different. The original Mona Lisa, which was dug up under a layer of paint with a special camera, different from the one I see in the Museum visitors. It was more broad, more accentuated smile and others eyes.
Another secret is that the people of the Mona Lisa has no eyebrows and eyelashes. There is an assumption that in the Renaissance this was the most women and this was a tribute to the fashion of the time. Women 15-16 century get rid of any facial hair. Others argue that eyebrows and eyelashes actually were, but over time has worn. One researcher Kott, who deals with the study and careful study of this work of the great masters, has debunked many myths at the expense of the Mona Lisa. For example, once there was a question about the hand of the Mona Lisa. Even inexperienced Gaza shows that the hand is curved in a very peculiar way. However, Kott found on the hands Gladilina features capes, the colors of which had faded and began to seem that the arm has a strange unnatural shape. Thus we can safely say that the Mona Lisa during its writing were very different from what we see now. Time mercilessly distorted the picture to such an extent that many are still looking for these secrets of the Mona Lisa, just do not have any.
And with the help of infrared transmission engineer was able to see the preliminary sketches that were done on canvas the genius of the Renaissance. According to Scott, these pictures prove that da Vinci was an ordinary man, and he was peculiar difficulties in the creative process, the lack of inspiration. "He hesitated, changing his hand position model" — says the researcher. In addition, he was able to learn that Leonardo first painted the landscape, and then on top of it wrote the human figure.
The secret of the Mona Lisa attributed to a precise mathematical calculation of Leonardo, who by that time had developed a secret formula of painting. With the help of this formula, and precise mathematical calculations, from under the hand of the master came the terrifying power of the work. The strength of her charm comparable with lively and animated, but not drawn on the Board. There is a feeling that the artist painted the Mona Lisa in an instant, like clicking a camera, not painted it 4 years. In an instant he caught her sly glance, a fleeting smile, one single movement, which is embodied in the picture. As it was the great master of painting anyone not destined to unravel will remain secret forever.
