A Smile from a Simple Woman

          Mona Lisa is one of the most popular paintings in the world. Its image can be seen in many movies, places and sometimes the word Mona Lisa is also used in songs. Many people are saying that it is a very mysterious and precious painting since many have tried to steal or ruin it. For many years, many have struggled for the possession of this painting. Now, many are confused on what is really behind the Mona Lisa why many people are attracted and are dying to see it. Few says that it’s the beauty of the sitter and most are saying that it is the way how Leonardo da Vinci captured her essence and subtle smile with great precision.

          The smile of Mona Lisa is very mysterious as well. It shows a lot of feelings that can’t be explained by an ordinary person. The smile is now frequently described as enigmatic or uncertain. Her smile can also express happiness and joy but can be changed if looked in a different view. For me, her smile is somewhat creepy, it is like she is hiding something or she has something to say that she can’t say because of what may happen. For her expression, she showed me a pure happiness; it’s like being happy, contented on what you have and living perfectly. But at second and longer look, her smile became attracting and somehow, I was persuaded with that smile which made me smile as well. For that short moment, I felt like I was in a very peaceful and quiet place, where there is nothing to worry about.

          Now I agree that it is enigmatical and that many professionals are giving their time to study the mystery behind the great work of art of Leonardo da Vinci. But still, behind my head, the smile is just a simple smile from a simple woman. :)
