Well, in my mind I see Mona Lisa as a person hidding her feelings from the world. Her smile to me seems to show a few things. She looks like she's up to some sort of mischief, her smile is a bit naughty as if she has something brewing up in her mind. But on a closer look I saw her smile doesn't seem that happy as if she has some dirty secret or as if she's nervous thinking she might accidently blurt out everything she has locked up in her thoughts.
Over all to me its a portrait of the most basic instinct of every human. We all have some things we prefer hidden and not listed in the 'table of contents' of our daily lives but sometimes things happen that make you think you're being watched or as if someone knows of those secrets hidden in those pages of yours. I've also noticed that her eyes aren't facing the observer but instead are to a side as if she's looking for some one or even better someone's looking at her.
This is just what I think! It could all of course be just gibrish coming out of a mind that's just spent too much time looking a screen...

You mean Mona Lisa ?
It is a well known painting signed by Leonardo da Vinci, he was Italian and lived about 500 years ago, yet the painting is maybe the most famous ever, because that woman (who in my opinion is not beautiful at all) has a quite strange smile no one yet understood. This smile inspired the Code of Da Vinci famous novel.

The Mona Lisa Portrait, is about an early era depiction of" simple elegance" that we can also reflect on and share in to days society. It is the perfect picture, of innocents, and UN materialism. Proving that we do not need treasures to have inner beauty, that shines forward to others, to make a difference.

Moana Lisa was a hooker who made her living in the bar at the Ala Moana Hotel in Honolulu, gee, EVERYONE knows THAT. She had a number of bad habits, which in her Deep South patois she said were her "po' trait'". That meant "poor traits."

It is about a lady living next door. There were no cameras those days. The husband of the lady insisted to get a portrait of her done by one his friend, who happened to be a painter. But being very shy in nature, the lady refused. But upon sustained pressure, she agreed to pose for a portrait on the condition that it must be done by her neighbor Da Vinci. Da Vinci was a type of man everybody would love to have as neighbor. He agreed to do the portrait. The lady reluctantly posed for it. Thats it.

the mona lisa is famous for her smile. it is said that nobody can smile like her. and they also say that when you past the painting, its eyes follow you. although, rumour has it that it was actually leonardo da vinci who disguised himself as the woman in the renown painting. he then painted a portrait of himself as a drag queen. why did he do that? for the hell of it! that's what i heard.
by the way, this question should be put under visual arts as it is a painting and not a performing art (drama) of any way.

Some people say it is a feminzed self portrait. Da Vinci carried it with him everywhere he traveled.
