The line to see that portrait is at least 1200 feet long and furthermore it is displayed behind glass for security purposes; it was stolen in 1911. However, there are so many published images of the Mona Lisa that one can examine the image better from published photos. I was allowed only a few seconds to look at her before an irate visitor felt that I should move on. I have examined the details of the picture for the past twenty-nine years and I have executed at least six different versions of it showing alternative realities that I have discovered in the image. Leonardo da Vinci said, "The artist who wishes to enhance his faculties for creative invention can perceive whatever he wishes to see in a stain on the wall" So I have looked and have seen a plethora of hidden images in the Mona Lisa portrait.
