What is surprise everyone will have when they learn that Leonardo ACTUALLY used and AI generator of his day, also known as ‘his imagination’, loosely based on a number of bridges he had seen earlier in his lifetime.

Did da Vinci Create a 3D 'Mona Lisa'? | Live Science I wonder if in the 3D version the bridge is more pronounced. This sister painting, that makes the 3d image, was painted along the Mona Lisa.

oh a veil! ive wondered what that line on her forehead was about. the zoom in there makes sense. ( also, his students made versions of his painting? who knew? )

That doesn’t look anything like Mona Lisa Vito. Is the lady in the painting also an expert auto mechanic, out of work hairdresser, pool hall hustler, and legal scholar?
Maybe it’s the Brooklyn Bridge.

Actually, that would explain the wonky horizon line. Sometimes it’s hard for those AI generators to match things with a big gap in between them.
Now has anyone counted her fingers? Wouldn’t surprise me if she had six, AI images are terrible at hands.

I found it in the painting but not seeing it in the OP photo? the unique terrain sure does seem to match, though

it’s in guardian article:
there’s only one pillar currently. they estimated the number of original pillars based on the width of the river. ( assuming, for unstated reasons i guess, that the river hasn’t changed in all this time. so
)
mentioned above, from a link by @RickMycroft. the line is part of a wedding veil that’s only visible close up

What? No, the horizon line that I’m talking about is where the water meets the sky, the red arrow below. The veil is on her forehead and down her hair, the yellow arrow.
If you look online, there are many theories about why the horizon is wonky, generally along the lines of Leonardo trying to create some kind of optical illusion.
