Work of Art #1

Example:

This work of art depicts the famous portrait of the Mona Lisa. The original portrait hangs in a museum in Paris and was painted by Leonardo da Vinci. The lady in the portrait has a faint smile, is dressed modestly and is very commonly. The artist appeared to have painted her in front of an outdoor scene.  The portrait is quite old. She would be described during those times as being handsome or commonly.

The art time period is The Renaissance period. The Mona Lisa was created between 1503 and 1519.
