The Way Eye See It
Mona Lisa Smile

While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see.

I just the the interaction of the shadow here. It seems as if there is a mutual admiration between the shadow and Mona Lisa herself. Superb!

A Mona Lisa with pepper (yours !) and her mysterious smile meeting a mysterious shadow (your ?... or Leonardo's ? ;o) Walls are great story-tellers (just like you...). Oh yes..........

Leonardo would have certainly appreciated this modern composition, far away for the conventional presentation of the Louvre Marc ! :-)

It took me a while to figure out it wasn't Pc but Pepper.
Does this make the Mona Lisa hot stuff?

Well done. The blending of two icons, so opposite. And you have to love the setting.
