The character we see in the famous portrait at the Louvre is not that of Lisa del Giocondo or Mona Lisa, but that of Isabella of Aragon and Sforza, the daughter of the King of Naples Alfonso II of Aragon. Isabella married her cousin Gian Galeazzo Sforza, the heir to the Duchy of Milan, to strengthen ties between the Kingdom of Naples and the Duchy of Milan. Leonardo da Vinci was at that time in the service of Ludovico Sforza, Gian Galeazzo's uncle who was regent at the court of Milan. Isabella's young husband died prematurely at the age of 25 without having been able to exercise power, said to have been assassinated on his uncle's orders. The German historian Maike Vogt-Luerssen tells us that after her widowhood, Isabella and Leonardo formed a secret couple and had 5 children. So it is the portrait of his beloved that Leonardo da Vinci made, which explains why he took it to Amboise in France and kept it until the end of his life, as we keep a family photo nowadays. So there was an emotional bond with Isabella that did not exist with Lisa del Giocondo whose portrait was just a commission. The research I have done myself on the landscape indicates that it is based on an authentic place, which would confirm Maike Vogt-Luerssen's theory, as it probably pays tribute to Isabella of Aragon's family origins. It seems obvious to me that the identity of the character in this portrait has been confused between an order actually received, that of the silk merchant's wife, and the portrait of Leonardo's companion which is the one we see today at the Louvre. All of this is probably well known today to the so-called specialists of Leonardo da Vinci, who do not want to recognize the inconsistencies of the official version, because they have spent their whole life defending a version they know today is outdated. As Mark Twain said, "It's easier to fool people than to convince them they've been fooled".
The "Earlier Version" matches the Louvre's "Mona Lisa" because Leonardo painted the face and hands with "NO BRUSHSTROKES'!! Only Leonardo's method of painting could achieve this state of perfection with many thin layers of paint!! Richard T. Hill / Poor Richard's Art Collection
I could not care less who painted what . But for my money the younger one is the more beautiful . And the world the is a better place for us having these two beautiful objects .
At least three women, painted like the Mona :Lisa: The SOCIAL Mona Lisa (the main, DaVinci LISA), the beautiful LISA (Mona' young lady-in-waiting), and the tough, rugged, Lisa, who helped MONA make the journey, from the New World, to Europe, overseas. The TOUGH Lisa, probably married a sailor-Nobleman, from Russia.
The Monalisa painting has no secrets except that she represents the woman mentioned in Revelation 12. Bible, the mother of Christ, his second coming. The landscape behind her reoresents the river of life mentioned in the Revelation 22, also the same as the landscape depicted in the DEATH XIII card of the Tarot with a middle course of the river below the high rocks where the upper course of the river flows leading to the two towers near the horizon! Thanks

There's nothing like seeing the Mona Lisa on person...stunning

The teaseing smile some say was because the model was actually a young man. The church frowned upon women models.
And not just any man!
His male model was a companion that joined in dinners before the admiration of the portrait.

Can I know what you're smoking ?
Looks legit to me and I did watch the rest of the documentary.
The situation is diferent!
This looks like a model POSING as the Mona Lisa. The chin is different. She looks "softer" and prettier, and...younger.
