Bonjour! This is Cecilia architect expert in art history and specialist on te collections of the Louvre. One of my favorite artist is Leonardo da Vinci, and on this session I want to share with you what I have learn about him on years of study and research. Join me in this interacive live session where you will be wellcome to pose your questions
In front of the Mona Lisa, as in front of any masterpiece, the spectator, risks indulging in his/her personal reactions which I think is totally fair. However In this session my approach brings more light on the work itself and on its true significance in history. Instead of exposing what it suggests: I will define what it is, what it represents in the history of art. Together we will dive into this masterpiece in order to read the testimony of Leonardo da Vinci and through him: a window of the civilization in which he lived.
Mona Lisa is certainly the most famous painting in the world and lots of ink has run to talk about her: Magnetic , enigmatic and impenetrable, with this smile that has no characterized expression, and a gaze that both loves and rejects, she is the glassed incarnation of the “eternal femenin”. 
Master piece of Leonardo Da Vinci, Mona Lisa participates in the mistery that surrounds his genius: highlighting his foreknowledge of great inventions , his pictural power to suggest the invisible and the unpronounceable. More than the highest point of an evolution, Mona Lisa is at the heart of the research taken by Leonardo, it is the point of completion of his integral work and in this this session you will  understand this. 
Using methods of mediation together we will observe, compare, understand how this piece of art reveals the spirit of Leonardo, his research, his ambitions uest for making of painting a science, inaugurating Modern Times.
At the end we will have a 15min session of Q/A , happy to meet you soon 
Cecilia
