This painting can symbolize the confusing nature of women. Mona Lisa may have been a courtesan but the other message Da Vinci was trying to get across was that a woman without a legitimate man at her side is incomplete or unbalanced that she cannot be complete without a man. She is nothing without a man in her life. Something that still puzzles the viewers of this painting is her slight mysterious smile and the different columns in the background of the painting. Of the many famous paintings of women, this is one of the most famous and most well-known.
