Mona Lisa

Jess Davis 1968 (High Wycombe)

November 22 
Narrative
Mona Lisa, a famous work of art, a fine specimen of womanhood in dark attire, with a relaxed and ever present smile, transfixing all that see it to admire her style.

An aging painting that stands the stead of time, what's behind her smile, that's makes us wonder for a while, what gave her the inspiration for such a quirk, a ceaseless wonder of what went on that day, the actress to the canvas, retaining a secret, or willingly knowing the meaning  of such an act could and would attract.

Arousing curiousity, causing her observers to speculate. A stroke of genius with the painters hand, irritatingly so, as I cannot decide what went on behind her ever present smile.

But I know this mona will always be unique in style.

Written by Jessica Davis.
