Mona Lisa&#8217;s real identity, Lisa Gherardini, is practically a household name, familiar to art lovers all over the world as the model for the famous painting by <a href=\"https:\/\/finearttouch.com\/blog\/?p=10049\">High Renaissance<\/a> master <a href=\"https:\/\/finearttouch.com\/blog\/?p=6\">Leonardo da Vinci<\/a> probably painted in 1503-05. <br> <br> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pallatini bases his claim for the real Mona Lisa&#8217;s current whereabouts on old Florentine archive documents. Pallatini believes she was buried in the convent of Sant&#8217;Orsola, a site which is now deserted and run down in the thriving hub of modern day Florence. Pallatini puts Mona Lisa&#8217;s death in the year 1542 at the age of 63. Lisa Gherardini was the wife of a prominent Florentine merchant named Giocondo, and it was common for the wealthy to end their days in a convent or monastery in exchange for a substantial donation to the church. Pallatini claims that his study finally proves the real existence of the woman Mona Lisa. The current location for da Vinci&#8217;s famous <em>Mona Lisa<\/em> painting is in the <em>Louvre Museum<\/em> in Paris, France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brenda Harness, Art Historian<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, the answer to that question depends on whether you are talking about the painting or the body.
