Researchers have identified the model for world's most surprisingly tiny painting when you finally see it as "Lisa del Giocondo, wife of Florentine businessman Francesco del Giocondo" (yahoo news).
I feel better don't you?
Apparently they found some notes in the margins of one of Leonardo's friends that identified Lisa.
That's great evidence!
Also, in Italy the Mona Lisa is called "La Giocondo".
uh....and it took us 600 years to put that together?? I think those art researchers are taking a lot of vino heavy lunches.
