Over the last millennium, billions and billions of paintings have been painted all over the world, and only one of all still holds the position of a 'masterpiece' title!

Yes it is the masterpiece of 'Mona Lisa',painted by the man Leonardo da vinci in the early 16th century from 1503-1506! There's a reason why it stands out different of all, let's have a look at all those key aspects

  • The eyebrows

One of the key points that most of you guys might've observed. Mona Lisa doesn't have eyebrows at all, which probably explains as to why it looks unique yet beautiful. However few recent surveys say that she did infact had the eyebrows but might've faded off, whatever the case maybe that particular trait makes it look more unique

  • The smile

There's been countless explanations as to why that smile of Mona Lisa is different, the interesting fact about the painting is the way it should be viewed, the peripheral vision…. Yes, if you look at the painting from her eye's point of view, the smile would appear more elegantly, more clearly and more accurately than when seen directly at her smile! Masterpiece indeed isn't it!

  • Prado's Mona Lisa

There are tons of Mona Lisa replicas and look alikes but one of such replicas which is unique is Prado's Mona Lisa which was painted by one of the disciples of Leonardo Da Vinci, it dates back to the 15th century as well, but one thing that's peculiar is that this replica served no purpose and was stored in Swiss banks vault, only to be discovered and restored and given prominence in 2012

  • Was the real Mona Lisa pregnant at the time?

In 2004, experts from the National Research Council of Canada conducted a three-dimensional infrared scan and claimed that the transparent gauze veil worn by the sitter is a guarinello, typically used by women while pregnant or just after giving birth, So it is a possibility that the actual Mona Lisa was actually carrying a baby in her womb during the time

There's a reason why the portrait stands out differently, the reason are much more than this, there are thousands of speculations that goes on every year, thousands of researchers research this masterpiece every year, And the way it's been painted is more than amazing as well, it surely is a masterpiece after all
