Secrets of Mona Lisa

Source: The Mind Museum

Mona Lisa has been a significant part of my childhood memories not because it is a work of art but because, for me, it was a familiar song, which my father usually hummed - whether to put me and my siblings to sleep or just to entertain everybody at home.  I later learned that the song stemmed from the mystery behind the portrait created by Leonardo da Vinci - an Italian painter, sculptor, architect, musician, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer.

A number of scholars have been trying to uncover the controversy surrounding not just the famous smile of the subject but the entirety of the painting as well.  And that was enough to trigger my curiousity.  Since Mona Lisa was painted by a genius, could it be that there is a scientific explanation for every detail, e.g., for every brush stroke of that enigmatic piece of art?

If given the chance, I would have loved to visit the Louvre Museum in Paris and see the portrait myself.  But then, that would not be financially feasible at present.  Then I thought to myself, why would I just visit the Mind Museum in Taguig?  I was informed that there is an eye-opening, in-depth analysis of "The Secrets of Mona Lisa" that started its three-month run last September 1 and will end on November 30, 2013.

This is a mind-blowing experience that I will never miss for the world.  Wanna care to join me?  Then, perhaps we start our journey here.
