2. Bài mẫu

I would consider myself as an art person, I have seen so many stunning paintings. But the stand out for me is Mona Lisa, which is an immaculate painting by Leonardo Da Vinci who is an internationally acclaimed painter. He became synonymous with many paintings that perfectly capture the essence of the Renaissance. But his signature work of art is, hands down, Mona Lisa.

I first saw the painting a couple of months ago at a local art gallery in the vicinity of my house. It was just a reproduction of Mona Lisa. It couldn’t possibly do justice to the Real McCoy. But still I was really struck by the painting.

The painting looks amazing. The color are predominantly dark tones which give off a a sombre vibe. And the focal point is a lady with a mysterious smile. For thousand of years, many scientists have been trying to decipher the meaning behind that smile.

And when it comes to my feeling to the paintings, as I was saying, I haven’t seen the original version by myself. But seeing its replica, I was completely transfixed. And I wish that in the future, I could contemplate the genuine Mona Lisa.
