MONA LISA - Renaissance Gallery

Leonardo's portrait of Mona Lisa, probably the most famous painting in the world has been interested by the public for more than 500 years. It has been reproduced and discussed by artists throughout the history.

Mona Lisa has been reappearing in many disguises. Like Orlando, she has changed her sex and identity throughout reproductions, interpretations and reinterpretations by numerous artists. She was a man and a woman, a hooker and a saint, a mother and a mistress, an aristocrat and a peasant... Leonardo's Mona Lisa can also be understood as an icon of the birth of the modern subject.
