[Music]

let’s go to the painting area

okay

[Music]

sarah stop and look at her

mona lisa

tell me about her

it’s an oil painting by artist leonardo

da vinci

it has been believed to have been

painted between 1503 and 1506

the mona lisa is now one of the most

valuable paintings in the world

how much sarah

it holds the guinness world record for

the highest known insurance evaluation

in history at 100 million dollars in

[Music]

i guess it must be more expensive now

who is mona lisa

is she real or is she a character

the model is lisa de giacondo

she was a member of the garadini family

and the wife of a wealthy silk merchant

i heard mona lisa was stolen many times

yes it was stolen in 1911 by a louvre

employee

during the second world war the painting

was stolen again

[Music]

now mona lisa is owned by the french

government

and now she’s here

yes the lower part of the painting was

damaged when a person poured acid on it

and a young man threw a stone at it

how could they treat a painting like

that i don’t know

maybe because it’s so famous

today the mona lisa is considered the

most famous painting in the world

a destination painting

when you’re too famous there will always

be two forces around you

fans and anti-fans

so are paintings so are people

mona lisa created controversy for a

while

i heard about that

looking into her eyes you’ll see a lot

of joy

optimism

love of life

but looking at her mouth and lips

it seems she’s strangely serious

but also smiling

it’s a mystery

how do you feel

i don’t know

what do you see in this painting

you come here to meet her like this tell

me something about her

you want to hear from me

yes of course

i see a lovely chubby lady her eyebrows

are a bit pale with no lipstick

i guess she forgot to put on mascara and

no makeup before drawing

you’re so funny i think in the past

girls didn’t wear much makeup

her hands are cute she is the lady of a

rich family who’s pampered

in short

i see a gentle and beautiful woman

so funny

art is not what you see but what you

make others see edgar dega a french

artist said

yeah

i think it depends on the viewers visual

feelings

thanks for sharing information about

this museum

[Music]

together on wednesday or friday
