The Mona Lisa Smile - A Possible Source
Posted by: Jim in Philosophy, Painting Technique, Painting, Mystery on Feb 02, 2009
I was watching a recent program on early Greek art. The narrator pointed out that the Greeks like the Egyptians idealized all forms. One area that was most idealized was the smile on the faces of the statues and busts. Interestingly enought that same idealized smile appeared to be the same as the smile on the Mona Lisa.
