The real identity of Mona Lisa?, by Coach on Aug 15, 2013 21:56:32 GMT 1, I thought some of you may find this interesting:
"Scientists in the Italian city of Florence have opened a tomb to extract DNA they hope will identify the model for Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa.
The tomb contains the family of Lisa Gherardini, the wife of a silk merchant, who is believed to have sat for the artist.
It is hoped DNA will help to identify her from three skeletons found last year in a nearby convent."
