Is Mona Lisa too fat?
Big Bureaucracy ^ | February 13th, 2010 | Ellie Velinska

BBC reports that Dr. Vito Franco from Palermo University believes that Mona Lisa has a build-up of fatty acids under the skin of her eyes. That is supposed to be a sign of high cholesterol.

The news is so absurd I decided to join the fray and come up with few matching thoughts of nonsense.... There was no McDonald’s back in the 1507 when Lisa Del Gioconda posed for Leonardo. I wonder what Mona Lisa’s diet was back then. What we know for sure is that Mrs. Gioconda did not eat French fries because the potatoes were imported from the New World to Europe later in the century. That means also she did not eat chocolate, tomatoes, corn or turkey. She may have had a French toast though...........

I’d guess that right she’s probably too thin, but she’s not presently in good health either way.

Have you seen the photoshop of Zero, letting a fag hang from his lips, in David’s portrait of Napoleon? That pissed me off too because it is an insult to Napoleon and I have been fortunate enough to see that painting at the National Gallery, hee, hee
