	Woman behind that smile - Arts - www.smh.com.au
		Seventeen years of research, beginning in Germany, have led the Adelaide historian Maike Vogt- Luerssen to believe that the Mona Lisa is the lovesick former Duchess of Milan, Isabella of Aragon, and not the wife of a florentine silk merchant, as has been believed.
		Apart from the wan smile and absence of jewellery, the Mona Lisa is wearing heavy, mournful garb; Isabella of Aragon's mother died the year before Leonardo da Vinci painted his most famous work.
		But by using symbols employed in Renaissance portraiture to denote background and heritage, Ms Vogt-Luerssen has found what she believes are other pictures of Isabella of Aragon that connect with and reveal some physical similarity with the Mona Lisa painting.
