Mona Lisa

This interesting site about the Mona Lisa! produced by the Louvre, is a revealing in depth analysis of both the subject and the painting. A real piece of patient detective work.

This last week we went to see the film The Da Vinci Code, starring Tom Hanks. I have to say that we were somewhat disappointed, but perhaps it is a tall order to transfer all of Dan Brown's code cracking, which is very cerebral, into big screen action. With the current phenominal success of the book, this film really is the 'must see' of the moment.

How fascinating that the mysterious Mona Lisa continues to intrigue and beguile, and to appear in so many guises from the high art down to the marketing of everyday items, including fruit wrappers!!!
