Historians in Italy have discovered that by increasing the eyes of the Mona Lisa, the painting shows tiny numbers and letters that can be seen under the microscope .Experts say the letters and numbers are barely distinguishable, and represent a kind of real-life code from Da Vinci.

The search was started by another element worthy of Dan Brown's plot, when another member of the committee discovered a book in an antique shop that referred to the eye symbols of the Mona Lisa.
