《蒙娜麗莎》是一幅享有盛譽的肖像畫傑作。它代表達·芬奇的最高藝術成就,成功地塑造了資本主義上升時期一位城市有產階級的婦女形象。畫中人物坐姿優雅,笑容微妙,背景山水幽深茫茫,淋漓盡致地發揮了畫家那奇特的煙霧狀“無界漸變著色法”般的筆法。畫家力圖使人物的豐富內心感情和美麗的外形達到巧妙的結合,對於人像面容中眼角唇邊等表露感情的關鍵部位,也特別著重掌握精確與含蓄的辯證關係,達到神韻之境,從而使蒙娜麗莎的微笑具有一種神秘莫測的千古奇韻,那如夢似的嫵媚微笑,被不少美術史家稱為“神秘的微笑”。

 

  500年來,人們一直對《蒙娜麗莎》神秘的微笑莫衷一是。不同的觀者或在不同的時間去看,感受似乎都不同。有時覺得她笑得舒暢溫柔,有時又顯得嚴肅,有時像是略含哀傷,有時甚至顯出譏嘲和揶揄。在一幅畫中,光線的變化不能像在雕塑中產生那樣大的差別。但在蒙娜麗莎的臉上,微暗的陰影時隱時現,為她的雙眼與唇部披上了一層面紗。而人的笑容主要表現在眼角和嘴角上,達·芬奇卻偏把這些部位畫得若隱若現,沒有明確的界線,因此才會有這令人捉摸不定的“神秘的微笑”。它的擁有者法國政府把它保存在巴黎的盧浮宮供公眾欣賞。

  

 達芬奇1502年(義大利文藝復興時期)開始創作《蒙娜麗莎》,並根據瓦薩里(Vasari)的記載,這幅畫耗時4年完成。

蒙娜麗莎是義大利最早的一幅半身畫像,畫中人物坐著並把交疊的雙手擱在座椅的扶手上,從頭部至腰部完整的呈現出半身形體,一改早期畫像只畫頭部及上半身、在胸部截斷的構圖,為日後的畫家及攝影師樹立新的肖像圖基本架構。達·芬奇使用金字塔結構來將畫中的女士簡單而充滿地放置在畫中。她的疊在一起的手構成金字塔前方的角。她的胸部、頸部和面部煥發出與她的手同樣的柔軟的光芒。這些有機部分的光芒的變化顯示出肉體的豐滿和柔潤,包括上述的笑容。西格蒙德·佛洛德將這個笑容理解為畫家對他母親的感性的懷念。其他人將它描寫為天真的、誘媚的或甚至於出神的或悲傷的。應該指出的是達·芬奇當時的肖像畫多半帶有這樣的微笑。

 

  最近有學者指出蒙娜麗莎之所以看起來似笑非笑是因為達芬奇應用了眼睛的錯覺。眼睛的中心部位一般對較為亮的區域敏感,而邊緣則對較暗的區域敏感。人一般確認笑容時主要是靠嘴唇和眼睛的形態特徵判斷。而達芬奇就是利用了蒙娜麗莎嘴唇形成的陰影。當你盯著她的眼睛時你不會忽視她的嘴和眼睛,就會覺得她在微笑,而你盯著她的嘴時你會忽視她的嘴和眼睛,就會覺得她沒有在微笑(怪誕心理學)。 

 

  神秘的蒙娜麗莎除了以其微笑著稱,畫中人物的眼神也相當獨特。無論你從正面哪個角度賞畫,都會發現蒙娜麗莎的眼睛直視著你,這使人感到蒙娜麗莎的眼睛仿佛是活的,會隨著觀眾的視角游走,並對所有觀眾抱以永恆的微笑。
