Why does the Mona Lisa have no eyebrows?

The Mona Lisa now looks like it has no eyebrows, in fact, there are three main reasons, of course, these three reasons are also the guesses in most people's minds, not the exact reasons. First of all, the first reason was that I deliberately did not draw eyebrows when I was creating at that time, the purpose was to preserve the beauty of the whole painting, and I was afraid that once I painted my eyebrows, I would destroy the perfect feeling of the whole painting, so I deliberately did not draw eyebrows.

01 The first reason is everyone's speculation, mainly because the Mona Lisa that people see so far is too perfect, so any move to add to the snake is superfluous in the eyes of people nowadays. In fact, there is a second reason, that is, in the original time, it was actually the eyebrows, but because the preservation is not particularly perfect, in the long river of history, the eyebrows slowly disappeared.

02 There is actually a certain argument for this reason, because scientists found that there are still certain traces after enlarging the eyebrows when the Mona Lisa painted the portrait. Although this mark is very slight or not particularly obvious, scientists have determined that the eyebrows were actually present before.

03 In fact, there is a third reason, that is, it is similar to the second reason, that is, there were actually eyebrows before, but after the portrait of the Mona Lisa was damaged due to long-term storage, people accidentally wiped off the eyebrows when the portrait of the Mona Lisa was repaired.

04 However, if you add this eyebrow, it may destroy the beauty of the whole painting, so future generations will not paint a snake in the sky, which is the main reason why Lisa has no eyebrows now. In fact, the third reason is a synthesis of the first two reasons, but it is impossible to infer which one is now, but most people are guessing, just like 1000 people have 1000 Hamlets in their hearts, and everyone has their own conjecture about the specific reason.

Many people are not interested in the medieval West, most of them have only learned about it in history textbooks, but the Mona Lisa painting is an exception, almost everyone knows what the "Mona Lisa" looks like, and almost everyone knows that she has a charming smile.

Yes, this painting leaves people with too much speculation, in addition to how charming that charming smile is, many people are also curious about why the "Mona Lisa" has no eyebrows, and some people may suddenly say: "Oh! It turns out that the Mona Lisa has no eyebrows", that is, there are also many people who do not notice that the Mona Lisa has no eyebrows.

Eyebrows are a very important part of the human face, and people without eyebrows are almost immediately noticed, and the Mona Lisa as a whole is obviously a feature that can be overlooked, so it seems that it may not be an oversight of Leonardo da Vinci.

A French engineer said that if one day he found even one eyebrow, it was found that Da Vinci originally painted the Mona Lisa eyebrows, the engineer named Kurt used infrared and ultraviolet various technical means to take a picture of the Mona Lisa with 100 million pixels, with 150,000 pixels per inch, equivalent to 24 times the size of the original picture, and then he was pleasantly surprised to find that there was an eyebrow ink on the left eyebrow position, Therefore, he thought that he had found evidence that Leonardo da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa with eyebrows.

The reason why there are no eyebrows on the current painting is that he believes that it is due to the age of some paint, and it may also be that he accidentally wiped off the eyebrows when cleaning, because when you look at the original work closely, you can clearly see that the paint cracks around the corners of the eyes have faded somewhat.

However, some people have different opinions on this, art ** in life, in the era when Leonardo da Vinci lived, women were popular "wide amount", just like our Tang Dynasty to fat for beauty, this is an aesthetic point of view of the period, so some women usually shave their eyebrows or shave them directly, so Leonardo da Vinci did not paint the Mona Lisa eyebrows, which added a "sculpture" like charm to the painting, but the Mona Lisa is by no means like a sculpture to give people a cold feeling, Otherwise, it would not have become Leonardo da Vinci's favorite painting for many years, in fact, Leonardo da Vinci gave life to the Mona Lisa with his superb painting technique.

Vasari, a famous Renaissance painter and a student of Michelangelo, said: "If you look closely at the recess under her neck, it seems that there is blood flowing." From the artist's point of view, it is obviously more convincing.

Leonardo da Vinci believes that man is the most beautiful image in nature, for which he has measured and proved more than once that the proportion of each part of the human body is an integer ratio, and this is called "divine proportion", the proportion is the basis that a painter must understand, and the entire facial structure of the Mona Lisa is said to be divided according to the ** division rate, if you add eyebrows will destroy the overall beauty.

At the time when Leonardo da Vinci created this painting, women at that time were prevalent in shaving their eyebrows and wide foreheads, so the Mona Lisa also had no eyebrows.

Leonardo da Vinci painted the eyebrows more lightly in order to make the painting look more coordinated, which highlights the facial features and the overall beauty, and the color of the oil painting fades off after a long period of time.

Because the Mona Lisa tribe worships the absence of eyebrows, they think that a woman without eyebrows is a beauty.

The absence of eyebrows was a Renaissance trend. Some researchers believe that Renaissance women were beautiful without eyebrows. Renaissance women were popular with wide foreheads, thin eyebrows, or even no eyebrows, which were considered a symbol of nobility and beauty at the time.

Because the eyebrows are gone for chemical reasons.
