On display at the Louvre Museum. The Portrait of Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo, better known as La Gioconda or Monna Lisa, is a painting by the Italian Renaissance polymath Leonardo da Vinci. It was acquired by King Francis I of France in the early 16th century and has since been owned by the French State.

The Mona Lisa is a world-famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci, created around 1503–1506. It depicts a woman with a mysterious smile, presumably Lisa Gherardini, the wife of a Florentine merchant. Leonardo used the sfumato technique to create soft transitions of color and light, making the portrait realistic.
The painting hangs in the Louvre in Paris and is famous for its expression, painting technique, and turbulent history, including a theft in 1911.

A must see, although usually crowds of people and a small painting do expect the wait/queue
