Lisa Gherardini Giocondo was the woman who posed for this painting. Lisa Gheradini Giocondo was about 25 when she posed for Leo's painting. She was the daughter and wife of wealthy men and it is believed her husband paid Leo for her to be painted.

* She started as Mia Donna Lisa (my lady Lisa) and it got shorted to Monna Lisa. Due to a spelling error in English it is now known as"Mona Lisa".

* She is called "La Giocondo" in Italian and "La Joconde" in French.

* It was painted on poplar wood panel. Da Vinci used oil paints on a poplar wood panel. The panel is 30 inches tall and about 20 inches wide.

* Over 6 million people visit the Louvre every year and the "Mona Lisa" is viewed by nearly all of them.

* One of the reasons that the "Mona Lisa" is considered such an amazing painting is due to the revolutionary new technique Leonardo used - blending light and shade. The blending of light and shade Leonardo used is called sfumato.
