Who is Ms. Gherardini again?
Well, she is better known as the Mona Lisa. Her real name is Lisa Gherardini, the wife of Francesco del Giocondo. Leonardo da Vinci painted this portrait of Ms. Gherardini for her husband Francesco del Giocondo sometime around 1503 to around 1506. Francesco was a silk merchant at the time. From everything I read, it seems that the painting was commissioned by Francesco and his wife for their new home.
The Italian name for the painting, La Gioconda, means jocund or the happy or jovial one. The word Mona is an Italian polite form of addressing someone. It started off as Ma Donna (similar to Ma Lady or Maam, etc. in English). Over the years, Ma Donna became simply Madonna, then contracted to just mona.
