According to the Famous Geologist, the Secret of the Mysterious Landscape Behind the Mona Lisa Painting May Have Been Revealed

An art scholar named Pizzorusso suggested that Leonardo reflected many noticeable features of Lecco, on the shores of Lake Como in northern Italy, in the painting. One of these features is the view behind the Mona Lisa!

Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa painting is one of the most discussed works in the art world. In fact, this is such a work that it has been the subject of many movies and songs from time to time.

Well, have you ever paid attention to this view behind Mona Lisa? So what is the secret of this view?

Although some art scholars say that this landscape is completely imaginary, others say that this landscape may actually be influenced by certain parts of Italy.

An art scholar named Pizzorusso suggested that Leonardo reflected many noticeable features of Lecco, on the shores of Lake Como in northern Italy, in the painting.

Stating that the similarities are extremely visible, Pizzorusso said, “I am very excited about this. “I really feel like this is an important golden strike,” he said.

Another theory in 2011 claimed that a bridge and road in Mona Lisa belonged to Bobbio, a small town in northern Italy.

A claim in 2023 included some findings that Leonardo painted a bridge in the province of Arezzo.

However, Pizzorusso said that it is not enough to just consider the bridge. “Arched bridges existed all over Italy and Europe, and most of them were very similar to each other. It is not possible to determine the exact location from the bridge alone. “Everyone is talking about the bridge, but no one is talking about geology,” he said.

Stating that the rocks in Lecco are limestone and that Leonardo depicted the rocks in gray-white color, Pizzorusso added that, unlike Lecco, this depiction is not the lake of either Bobbio or Arezzo.

“The botany in the Louvre version is wonderful, showing plants that would grow in a damp, dark cave. But the plants in the London version are inaccurate. Some of them are not found in nature,” said Pizzorusso, who revived the debate with his analysis of the vegetation and geology of the landscape around the figures.

  Roma’nın En Hüzünlü ve Şanssız İmparatorlarından Birisi: Claudius Tarih boyunca cesareti, zalimliği, sertliği ve savaşçı ruhuyla tanınan imparatorlar oldu. Ancak bazı hükümdarlar, yaşamlarında derin duygusal unsurlar taşıyarak gözlemleyenleri hatta üzüntüye sevk edebildi. Roma İmparatoru Claudius da böyle bir şanssız hükümdardı. Claudius, M.Ö. 10 yılında İtalya dışında, Galya’da doğmuştu. Çocukluğundan beri tarihe büyük bir ilgisi vardı. Buna rağmen siyasete katılamadı. İlk kez, yeğeni Caligula ile birlikte 37 yılında konsül olarak göreve başladı. Caligula, Tiberius’un vasiyetiyle imparator olmuştu; Claudius ise devlet işlerinden uzak tutuldu. Fiziksel ve zihinsel rahatsızlıkları onu bürokrasiden uzak tuttu. O zamanlar, Claudius’un imparator olabileceğini düşünen olmamıştı. Claudius, doğuştan sakat bir ayağa sahipti. Omuzları ve dizleri zayıftı, başı titriyor, bazen ağzından tükürük akıyordu. Elleri zayıftı ve bazen heyecanlandığında veya sinirlendiğinde burnu akardı. Ancak ...

  It’s Not Just About Physical Spaces: What is Liminal Space and How Does It Affect You? Liminal spaces represent a process of transformation, both physical and mental, and are therefore an important concept in many different disciplines. Let’s examine what it is! Source:  https://www.betterhelp.com/advice/general/understanding-how-liminal-space-is-different-from-other-places/ If you’re like most people, you may have noticed that there are certain places or situations where you feel off or uncomfortable. Such places can often be places such as empty bus stops and airport terminals. Often, these disturbing spaces can be described as liminal spaces. Liminal space comes from the Latin word “limen” meaning “threshold”. It may also be referred to as ‘liminality’. Such spaces often have a desolate atmosphere and are associated with an aesthetic disconnected from the concept of reality. At the same time, such places are waiting areas between one point and the next point in time and s...
