    you are all uncouth barbarians, the Mona Lisa is famous because it is different, many people look at this work of wart and contemplate the meaning behind that smile, and who this mysterious woman rally is. I am also disgusted by your ignorance, restating rumors as if they were the truth and challenging the greatest artisans in history with your sub-par work! comment on masterpieces only once you refine yourself, then we may have a discussion.

    well first lets look at other paintings from around the same time,

    http://www.illusionjewels.com/renaissanceportraitgallery.html#1500

    loot at the 1500's and tell me, how many smile? tell me how many are unknowns or not beautiful? You can easily copy another work and do a poor job at that but can you change?
