Mona+Lisa,-CH

__Mona Lisa__ Date:1503-1506 Location:Florence,Italy 5 Facts: 1.The Mona Lisa was the wife of Francessco di Bartolommeo di Zanobi del Giocondo. 2.The Mona Lisa was believed to be 24 years old at the time her portrait was painted. 3.In 1956 an acid attempt damaged the lower half of the painting, the restoration took several years. 4.The original name o the painting was Monna Lisa, ahort for Madonna meaning my lad. There was a spelling mistake and now it is the Mona Lisa. 5.A man Ugo Unganza threw a rock at the painting, which resulted in a small patch of damaged paint next to her left elbow. I picked the Mona Lisa because I never really noticed how cool it is. I found out that it actually was a very important piece of artwork to the world. I have also learned that it was stolen, then brought back a few years later. Overall I think it is a fascinating piece of artwork.
