Italy's head honcho of the National Historic Commission says the Mona Lisa is not only a man, but was Leonardo da Vinci's assistant and lover. Wow, never saw that one coming. They are saying the real name of Mona Lisa was Gian Giacomo Caprotti and it's not the portrait of a local merchant's wife, which was thought to be the identity for years. Caprotti is apparently featured in several of da Vinci's works, including paintings of John the Baptist and Angel Incarnate (the church is going to love that). Caprotti became da Vinci's apprentice when he was 10 and worked for him for 20 years. Sounds like a great love story to me.
