A Mona Lisa é uma pintura de retrato de meio-corpo pelo artista italiano Leonardo da Vinci. Considerada uma obra-prima arquetípica do Renascimento Italiano, ela foi descrita como "a mais conhecida, a mais visitada, a mais escrita sobre, a mais cantada, [e] a mais parodiada obra de arte do mundo." As qualidades inovadoras da pintura incluem a expressão enigmática do sujeito, a monumentalidade da composição, a modelagem sutil das formas e o ilusionismo atmosférico.
“To you, a prostitute is some kind of beautiful object. You respect her as you do the Mona Lisa, in front of whom you also would not make an obscene gesture. But in so doing, you think nothing of depriving thousands of women of their souls and relegating them to an existence in an art gallery. As if we consort with them so artistically!”
“Florence Thompson, the Mona Lisa of the 1930s, a migrant mother whose picture haunted the nation.”
“The Mona Lisa, to me, is the greatest emotional painting ever done. The way the smile flickers makes it a work of both art and science, because Leonardo understood optics, and the muscles of the lips, and how light strikes the eye — all of it goes into making the Mona Lisa's smile so mysterious and elusive.”
“Prese Lionardo a fare per Francesco del Giocondo il ritratto di Mona Lisa sua moglie.”
