Just Thinking…
Maybe The Eyes Have It?
You don’t fight your way through The Louvre just to shrug and concede that Mona Lisa was politely posing for someone. You pause and ponder what’s behind her expression. You wonder what she was trying to convey, what da Vinci was trying to convey in capturing her bemused smirk in his work. There’s a message in her gaze, and I think if we take a beat and think about it, we’ll find that there’s important information in the “Gen Z Stare” too.
