Who’s not telling what?
Hi, mia name isa Conchetta. Thatsa me in the picture. Yah, everybody thinks its Mona Lisa but thats notta true. I was the one that posed for Leonardo. It took him almost a week to do the picture and the funny look on my face is because my back is killin me. He didn’t even give me a stool to sit on. When Leonardo finished the picture he decided to call it the Mona Lisa because he didn’t think the name Conchetta worked as well as Mona Lisa. And the rest is history. Yes, his story, not mine!
My name is Maria and I am waiting for Angelo to take me for dinner. I am hoping that tonight is the night he will propose to me. We have great chemistry between us and Angelo is a good man. He works hard and comes from a big family. He is kind and gentle and he loves to garden. He makes his own wine and grows tomatoes, and his house is immaculate. We are both good catholics and want to have a big family. I pray with all my heart he will ask me to marry him. I wonder if he knows I am a descendant of Leonardo Da Vinci and my great great great Aunt Conchetta who posed for him so he could paint the Mona Lisa. I am a talented artist myself and Angelo has no idea that I own my own villa in Tuscany. But he knows I am passionate and I can cook and he seen some of my sculpture. I wonder, if he saw me in front of this print, would he see the connection? Then again we are all connected in some way.
