🎨Who is Mona Lisa (and why does it matter…)? | The LEGO Art Podcast

🖌️Take a journey with us 500 years back to Renaissance-era Italy, when Leonardo da Vinci first put brush to canvas to create the Mona Lisa...

🖼️For this episode of The LEGO Art Podcast, we’re joined by two art history experts to break down the Mona Lisa’s journey to becoming the most well-known artwork of all time. And what a journey it’s been…

Dr. Francesca Borgo is an Art History Professor at the University of St Andrews, currently at the Max Planck Institute. Her research covers early modern and Renaissance art history, particularly relating to Italian culture and, subsequently, Leonardo da Vinci.

Jennifer Dasal worked for many years as the contemporary art curator at the North Carolina Museum of Art until she left to focus full-time on her podcast ArtCurious which focuses on the most unique and strange stories from the world of Art History.

Your host is Jack Gardner Vaa. This episode of The LEGO Art Podcast was created as a building accompaniment to the LEGO Art Mona Lisa 31213.
