		<description>The Mona Lisa is in fact a self-portrait of Leo in the attire of a woman. Her name is even an anagram of the God &lt;em&gt;Amon Isla&lt;/em&gt; — the god of manly fertility, a hermaphrodite is her secret and she is smiling.</description>

		<description>I love this painting. It's one of my favorites. The way she's posed is so artistic. I love the way he captured her eyes when they weren't looking directly at him, and her clothes and the background... I don't know--something about this painting is just so magical!</description>

		<description>The secret of the Mona Lisa is that it is a man in drag.
No question about it, 100% sure. (I think it is &lt;a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salai" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;Salai&lt;/a&gt;, but it might be a self-portrait).

Not only that, all females were depicted on all paintings by Leonardo—they were men in drag.
Everybody can see with his own eyes.

The problem with Mona is she/he wears clothes, so it is hard too see what is going on.

If you take a look at Leonardo's sketches, for example “Angel in the Flesh”, his intentions are very clear (a hermaphrodite image of Salai, his name was written on the back of the drawing and later erased). If you look at the painting “&lt;a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imagen:Monna_Vanna.jpg" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;Mona Vanna&lt;/a&gt;” (black and white) attributed to Salai, you can clearly see a man being transformed in a woman, in exactly the same pose as Mona Lisa.
This painting in fact is a copy by Salai—of a lost original by the master himself.

Yes, there might still exist an naked version of Mona Lisa painted by Leonardo da Vinci. If it once existed I am 100% sure.

Now you people help me out??
The copies bares names as “Mona Vanna” and “Flora”.

I want to see that painting.

And you people take a close look at the images I am talking about if you want to understand the “Mystery” too.

Have fun, Leonardo is laughing, he has been known to pull pranks.</description>

		<description>I was in The Louvre in Paris. I think it is a portrait of Leonardo because he was gay. This painting has an enigmatic and mysterious attraction.</description>

		<description>I recall the first time I saw this painting was on my aunt's living room at age 8 or 9.  She lived in big house and she had a huge copy decorating one of the walls.  For whatever reason, the whole setup felt like a Mona Lisa a shrine, and I understood right away that somehow the piece was important...at least for my aunt.  I later saw it again in an art encyclopedia, and though I read about it nothing really stuck...I was really interested in "The Nude Maja" more, which was right below on that publication.  Years after, it still transmits the same feelings that it did the first time I laid eyes upon it.  Somehow she was somebody's muse...so important to that person that it was his/her will to capture that moment forever.  There's something about the peace in her eyes that's unforgetable...I remember sitting in my aunt's sofa and wonder what she was thinking, and sometimes if I did something wrong I would be afraid of looking at the painting knowing she was looking down at me.  Kid's stuff, I know.

Seeing all the closeups from that movie last year one can go on and on creating  theories about the importance of the piece itself rather than the person being  portrayed.  I do wonder who she was though...somehow I never looked it up.</description>
