Now the question; who was Mona Lisa? Many link the painting " La Gioconda" to the Mona Lisa. It is possible the portrait is of the wealthy shopkeeper, Francesco del Gioconda's mistress, entitled "La Gioconda", meaning Mona Lisa. What is the destiny of this painting? Has it been lost? We do not dispute the fact that Lionardo made this painting, but we do not believe it has any connections to the Mona Lisa that can be found in the Louvre. This becomes apparent on closer examination.
The Mona Lisa that we all know so well is without any doubt the mother of Lionardo - the woman he praised so highly. Vasari described a painting by Lionardo, which was an order from the shopkeeper del Giocondo to portray his young mistress "Lisa di Antonio Maria di Noldo Gherardini". Vasari described the features of a young and beautiful woman - her eyebrows, eyelashes, and skin. In the Mona Lisa, which we believe to be Lionardo´s mother, the figure has neither eyebrows nor eyelashes. Her eyes look sad and her smile a bit scornful - not the expression of a young woman. Those who know Lionardo´s relationship with his mother better understand the expression in the painting. Lionardo had few meetings with Catharina, his biological mother, during his youth but still he paid for her an expensive funeral. She felt alienated from his upbringing but still they had a strong bond.
There is also a nude painting of an expressionless and unrealistic Mona Lisa - the painter of which is unknown. Some have tried to ascribe this to the Lionardo school, but should Lionardo paint his mother naked? It is known through writings that Lionardo always took the Mona Lisa with him on his travels.
