The Most Famous Painting In The World From A Different Angle
The Mona Lisa is, imho, one of the biggest and longest ongoing hypes that lack foundation. Someone called it the most important painting and the inflated hype is going on for decades. Leonardo WAS in fact a literal genius at his time, but there are literally thousands of historic paintings that are at least at the same artistic levels (just watch at how the Dutch masters painted fur! ). Leonardo did a ton of paintings that are way more interesting (sketches of machines etc)
