I know that the Italian Painter Da Vinci painted it, but I read somewhere that that's where it presently is?

Yes. Leonardo had been living in France for the last years of his life so they kept it.
There are only two paintings of his that he kept with him were ever he went and were not commissioned; Mona Lisa and St. John the Baptist. Leonardo never felt they were finished. He continued to work on them until he was too feeble.
Artists at the time painted on wood, so paintings were smaller than ones done on canvass or frescos.

It's at the Louvre. It's very surprising how small and dark it is when you see it in person.
