I read somewhere that Lisa's husband, who commissioned Leonardo to paint the portrait, didn't like the finished product so he refused to pay for it and never claimed it. He probably didn't like the angle of her smile.

I saw the Mona Lisa at the Louvre in Paris. Instead of trying to get up close to the painting like the horde of other tourists were doing, I sat back and enjoyed the sight of everyone fighting to get closer to the painting.

Player #109700452, that reminds me of when I saw Plymouth Rock. I always thought it was big, and then I saw how small it is and was surprised.

I understand Lisa to be the first name of the sitter, but I don't know what the Mona means?

It sits behind protective glass after someone threw acid at it and damaged it. It's also had cake thrown at it and more recently soup as a demonstration against too little good food for people who need it in France
