I’ve reposting another blog with a quote of Einstein. Does she remind you a bit of a Mona Lisa.
WHAT IS ART?
EINSTEIN & THE DA VINCI SMILE
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.
Albert Einstein
Leonardo da Vinci, Female Head, 2nd half of 15th century, charcoal, red chalk, white lead on paper, Uffizi Gallery, Florence, Italy
Imagine if Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) and Albert Einstein (1879-1955) had lived at the same time? Two geniuses who understood the critical role of both the arts and science in the progress of civilization. Does the smile of the unknown woman of Leonardo’s Female Head remind you of Mona Lisa’s mysterious expression?
