________
Lisa di Antonio, known to the world as Mona Lisa, was born in the slums of Naples in 1479.
Her dad was Florentine Nobel Antonio Maria DiNoldo Gherardini. Not much is known about
her childhood. In 1495, at the age of 16, she got married, in Florence, Italy. Being of beauty
and good wedding material, she caught the eye of Florences’ noblest citizen, a wealthy Silk trader
named Francesco del Giocondo, who was 19 years her senior. Lisa became his 3rd spouse.
Being poor most of her life, she was now richer than she could have ever imagined. Her husband,
however, was always leaving her alone to go on business trips and never asked her to accompany
him. Lisa decided to make good of her time when she met an old weird painter named Leonardo
da Vinci. It is believed that her husband commissioned the painter to keep Lisa busy while a different
story says that she met Leonardo on her own.
She posed in 1503 for Leonardo at the age of 24 on a terrace over looking the mountains. She
was dressed in Florentine fashion which was heavy and burdensome. This began to take its toll
on the model. Da Vinci hired muses, jesters and musicians to keep her mood up and jolly while
he painted. Being painted with oil on pinewood was a hard tedious task. It took four years to paint
