Some archaeologists believe that you have found the secret behind the world's most famous painting, Mona Lisa. A framework and skull buried beneath a convent in Florence, Italy, is believed to be Lisa Gherardini order to belong, people are believed to be the model for a painting that Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece.
Lisa Gherardini was the wife of the silk merchant named Francesco del Giocondo. In Italy, Monalisa also known as La Gioconda.
Most modern historians agree that women who become models Mona Lisa is Lisa del Giocondo, who became a nun after her husband's death. Lisa del Giocondo died in the convent on July 15, 1542, at the age of 63 years.
Quoting the Daily Mail page, initially doing archaeological excavation team in an abandoned monastery, the Abbey of Santa Ursula, began last year. First, they found a thin layer of concrete. It became a marker of change in the monastery into military barracks.
But later archaeologists discovered a tomb chamber is believed to be the buried Lisa. Furthermore, they even found the order and size of the skull with women. Frame and the skull was found about five feet below the floor of the original building monasteries, with fragments of ribs and spine findings.
The excavation itself had stopped. Therefore, the archaeological team claimed running out of funds. However, after re-acquired funds, resumed excavations. This time, they found the order and human skulls.
The skull will be tested to be matched with other findings. The scientists will conduct a comparative DNA in the skull with two children Lisa skulls were found buried nearby. Once the order and the order can be verified, forensic artists will attempt to reconstruct the face and make comparisons with faces painted 500 years ago that da Vinci.
"We do not know exactly what the framework is derived from one or more bodies," said Silvano Vinceti, the archaeologist responsible for the excavation. "But this confirms our hypothesis that there is still a Santa Ursula order. We also can not conclude that the framework is found it is not Lisa Gherardini," said Vinceti.
Vinceti also said the findings are a very interesting process and is consistent with research that has been done before. "The dining room is one that we found mentioned in church records from 1495 and has been obtained with a vent and ladder. We also know that in 1625 there was a second grave was successful and we found," he said.
On these findings, Natalia Gucciardini, called relative of Lisa Gherardini, was deeply emotional. "I believe this is the last stop Lisa Gherardini," said Natalia is also a close friend of Prince Charles and former Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Last year, Professor Vincenti also use special methods to locate and identify the framework of Caravaggio, the painter of the Renaissance period. When it is, as in the novels of Dan Brown, Vincenti admitted there was a special message stored in Mona Lisa's eyes, as seen through a magnifying glass.
Monalisa painting itself now belongs to the French government and stored in the Louvre Museum in Paris. Leonardo da Vinci start painting it in 1503 or 1504 and finish in 1519, shortly before his death.
