Mona Lisa

An amber portrait of Venus seated on a rocky landscape,
With enigmatic facial expression historically undecipherable
Symbolist's acclaimed goddess of feminine mystique.
Born through Da Vinci's Smufato technique
Lady of Louvre, Lady of all arts. 



For Brian Strand's contest: "Ekphrasis-Painting"
