The full name of the picture is Italian. Ritratto di Monna Lisa del Giocondo -
“Portrait of Madame Lisa Giocondo In Italian ma donna means“ my mistress
”(cf. English“ milady ”and French“ madame ”), in abbreviated form this
expression was transformed into monna or mona. The second part of the model’s
name, considered the surname of her husband - del Giocondo, in Italian also has a
direct meaning and translates as “funny, playing” and accordingly la Gioconda -
“funny, playing” The name “La Joconda” is first mentioned in 1525 the legacy of
the artist Salai, the heir and student of da Vinci, who left the painting to his sisters
in Milan. The inscription describes her as a portrait of a lady named La
Gioconda.The picture in a rectangular format depicts a woman in dark clothes,
wrapped in a half-turn. She sits in an armchair, hands clasped together, resting
one hand on his armrest, and putting the other on top, turning in an armchair
almost facing the viewer. Separated by parting, smoothly and flatly lying hair,
visible through a transparent veil thrown over them (according to some
assumptions - an attribute of widowhood), fall on the shoulders with two sparse,
slightly wavy strands. A green dress in thin assemblies, with yellow sleeves in
pleats, is carved on a white low chest. The head is slightly turned. Art critic Boris
Vipper, describing the picture, indicates that in the face of Mona Lisa there are
traces of the quattrocento fashion: she has shaved eyebrows and hair on the top of
her forehead.
