"MONA LISA" is not her name. The Mona Lisa is perhaps the most renowned, most studied, most widely recognized, and most visited painting in the world. Most lecturers contemplate it to be the best masterpiece of all time. The Mona Lisa was painted with oil paint on a poplar wood panel, employing a technique that left no visible brush marks. Once hung in the bedroom of the French emperor Napoleon, in the Tuileries Palace for about four years, this painting measures just 30 inches by 21 inches and weighs 18 pounds.
