The science behind the Mona Lisa:
Did you notice that depending on where you look in the painting her
smile changes? (when focusing on her eyes versus focusing on her
mouth due to peripheral vision)
What about the unaligned horizon causing one side of the painting to
seem further than the other?
If she werent wearing a dress would you think it was a man or
woman? Why? (note the ambiguous proportions)
