While I prefer the prime version of Madonna on the Rocks, which also hangs in the Louvre it is hard to argue his mastery of portraiture. His ability to express the complexity of simple human emotion is unsurpassed except maybe by some of the Dutch Masters. The hair and net brush strokes are supposed to be amazing on the Mona Lisa but a pleb like me can't get near close enough to appreciate them.


I'm not saying the Mona Lisa isn't a great painting because it certainly is. However, to be easily the most famous painting in the world it is nothing special compared to many other paintings out there.
