Painting Description
The ''Mona Lisa'' is a half-length portrait painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci. Considered an archetypal masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance, it has been described as "the best known, the most visited, the most written about, the most sung about, the most parodied work of art in the world." The painting's novel qualities include the subject's enigmatic expression, the monumentality of the composition, the subtle modeling of forms, and the atmospheric illusionism.
The work is presumed to have been painted between 1503 and 1506; however, Leonardo may have continued working on it as late as 1517. It was acquired by King Francis I of France and is now the property of the French Republic, on permanent display at the Louvre Museum in Paris since 1797. The ''Mona Lisa'' is one of the most valuable paintings in the world. It holds the Guinness World Record for the highest known insurance valuation in history at $100 million in 1962, which is worth nearly $870 million in 2021 dollars.
The subject of the portrait is Lisa Gherardini, the wife of Francesco del Giocondo, and is known in Italian as ''La Gioconda''. The painting's title stems from a description by Renaissance art historian Giorgio Vasari, who wrote "Leonardo undertook to paint, for Francesco del Giocondo, the portrait of Mona Lisa, his wife." ''Mona'' in Italian is a polite form of address originating as "ma donna" – similar to "Ma’am", "Madam", or "my lady" in English. This became "Madonna", and its contraction "Monna". The title of the painting, though traditionally spelled "Mona" (as used by Vasari), is also commonly spelled in modern Italian as ''Monna Lisa'' (''mona'' being a vulgarity in some Italian dialects) but this is rare in English.
Leonardo's painting is famous for the subject's elusive smile, its exquisite detail, the delicate painting of the landscape, and the atmospheric sfumato technique. The ''Mona Lisa'' has been the subject of numerous studies by art historians and scientists alike and has been the subject of poetry, music, and many imitations. It has also been involved in several high-profile thefts and vandalism cases. Despite this, the ''Mona Lisa'' remains one of the most enduring and celebrated works of art in human history.
