First, all the facts I spoke of are verifiable via the internet but here is a taste of some of what I found: http://goo.gl/dxfZQw<br /><br />As for the Mona Lisa, I went to 5+ years if Art School and minored in Art History and I can tell you quite assuredly, both discussion points are valid. The arguments against are that Leonardo Da Vinci was an inventor and that he was deeply displeased with his most famous work and left details unattended because he wanted to get back to his research. As an aside, his most fascinating feat to me, was that wrote all hi science notes backwards in Latin. Whew! Talk about your extra security measures.<br /><br />Anyway, thanks again for reading. It does dishearten me to learn about the deplorable nature of our educational system, especially as a single Dad of four. I just have to work extra hard at homework time.<br /><br />–ArthurArthV8Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08425459411323956859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-304729842534651682.post-15359798417918925662014-06-30T10:22:51.035-07:002014-06-30T10:22:51.035-07:00It is a little saddening to learn about some of th...It is a little saddening to learn about some of these facts (especially something like the not knowing the Earth revolves around the Sun) - what resources are these from?<br /><br />Also my main reason for commenting was that the Mona Lisa was painted with eyebrows and eyelashes originally but they've faded or eroded over time although there are some arguments that fashion at the time was to shave eyebrows but you know, the painting is over 500 years old so what can you do?
