One Woman, One Supper, One Man...

Mona Lisa (also known as La Gioconda, or Portrait of Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo) is a portrait painted by the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci. It's a painting in oil. It was completed in Italia between 1503–1519. It is on permanent display at the Musée du Louvre in Paris.


The painting is a portrait and shows a seated woman, Lisa del Giocondo, whose facial expression has been frequently described as enigmatic.



The image is widely recognised, caricatured, and sought out by visitors to the Louvre, and it is considered the most famous painting in the world.

For us is a very beautiful painting, very realistic, enigmatic and full of secrets.



The Last Supper is a 15th century mural painting in Milan, also was created by Leonardo da Vinci for order of his patron Duke Ludovico Sforza and his duchess Beatrice d'Este. It represents the scene of The Last Supper from the final days of Jesus as it is told in the Gospel of John 13:21, when Jesus announces that one of his Twelve Apostles would betray him.

We think that this painting is very realistic and widely recognised in the entire world.



Da Vinci is one of the most popular artist in the world, and his paintings are enjoyed by millions of people.
But Leo isn't artist of just one succes, The Mona Lisa and the Last Supper are just his Masterpieces, actually many other popular works in the world were made by Da Vinci like:

  • Lady With an Ermine

  • Portrait of Ginevra de'Benci

  • Vitruvian Man


And many other paintings and works...
