In Mysterious we tell you once about the dark obsession of Leonardo Da Vinci and we want to continue talking about some of the mysteries that surround this genius and his works, specifically: La Gioconda or la Mona Lisa.
A mysterious work
Leonardo Da Vinci was barely aware as he painted the painting of the Mona Lisa that he would end up consecrating his career and making him famous all over the world.And he would not even have thought of fanaticism that would end up waking up even after five centuries, nor the numerous theories that would be established in regard to that painting that one day I paint and they say they never separated.The latter has led us to think about the great sentimental value that this painting meant for the artist.
Who is the protagonist? Why do you smile?
In any case, no one can forget that the painting of the Mona Lisa continues to hide a multitude of mysteries that we will never know with absolute certainty.
To begin with, the identity of the protagonist of the painting is still hidden.Many have wanted to see Franceso Giocondo's wife (hence his name), Lisa Gherardini, and this seems the most credible theory.Many centuries ago there have been many who have tried to elaborate a plausible theory that really identifies the woman represented.
So, some researchers have concluded that it could have been the woman, friend or some lover of Juliano II de Medicis, or even Isabel de Aragon.He has even come to speculate, based on Freud's theories, which could having been a teenager dressed as a woman, since the Mona Lisa would present a worrying masculinity in her features .This caused a wave of theories related to this assumption to emerge during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
But the strangest thing is that some researchers have come to conclude that the picture could even be Da Vinci's own self-portrait , since both faces blend perfectly.
On the other hand, there are doubts about his smile, undoubtedly the greatest of all mysteries.And if the picture is observed superficially, there is no doubt that the protagonist suggests a slight smile, but it is curious how it disappears when you look staring at her face, which inspires a great halo of life to the painting.
Are you pregnant? How should it be in person?
But in addition, several theories have emerged about whether the protagonist of the painting was pregnant, which is suspected by the position of her hands, delicately placed on her belly and by to wear a veil of gauze that was typical of women in the state at the time, however, no study has yet been able to reveal this secret.
You have even tried to decipher the size and weight of this emblematic character, in addition of his voice or if he suffered from any disease.Issues that are extremely difficult to clarify and that only prove until levels of the mysteries of the Mona Lisa have led to fanaticism to many researchers.
Anyway, the truth is that at present, the Mona Lisa continues to be a challenge for all those researchers who have been seduced by the day Ma portrayed by Da Vinci.Most of the hypotheses raised in this regard are not one hundred percent verifiable.And it is possible that neither the conjectures nor the new hypotheses that appear are able to give an answer about the whereabouts of the protagonist of the painting whose mysteries continue today seducing thousands of people.
