1304 Female Head La Scapigliata C1508 - Leonardo Da Vinci Painting
There’s a story untold,
A mystery to unfold.
Even in her unfinished state,
Her beauty will forever captivate.
Da Vinci’s hand has started the task,
Her delicate face, unable to mask.
His brush has brought her to life,
Serene and peaceful devoid of strife.
So let her hair fly in the breeze,
Disheveled, it falls softly with ease.
Is she waiting for a lost love to return?
The unfinished painting seems to yearn.
Is it a pleasant thought hidden in her gaze?
Is her head tilted reminiscing about his ways?
A sadness or an eternal glimmer of hope,
Her delicate demeanor offers some scope.
Perhaps it is the mystery that will remain,
That gives her beauty an everlasting reign.
Her lips reflect a secret buried deep,
A story Da Vinci offers our imagination to keep.
The inscrutable enigma will never be revealed,
For the final strokes that were never wield.
