Expert claims Salai as Mona Lisa model and muse
Italian researcher Silvano Vinceti says Leonardo da Vinci’s apprentice Salai, Salai also known as Gian Giacomo Caprotti, was the main influence and model for the Mona Lisa and that the portrait embodies Leonardo’s scientific, artistic and philosophical beliefs. He notes the painting’s layered symbolism and Salai’s ambiguous relationship with the artist, with other theories labeling the subject differently. The Mona Lisa is shown in the Louvre in Paris.
