it appears that another
da Vinci's code has been
decoded.
***
Universitas Heidelberg adalah
kampus jerman yang biasanya
dipandang top untuk bidang
kedokteran & ilmu-ilmu sosial.
Baru-baru ini, sekelompok
ilmuwan di universitas tsb.
menyatakan telah berhasil
memecahkan teka-teki mengenai
siapa sebenarnya jati diri
wanita yang dijadikan 'model'
dalam lukisan Mona Lisa yang
terkenal itu.
Menurut temuan tsb., wanita
itu adalah Lisa Gherardini,
isteri seorang saudagar kaya
di Florensia, Italia di masa
itu.
Nararti ini diperoleh dari
sebuah 'catatan pinggir'
di sebuah buku kuno yang
dibuat oleh si pemilik
buku, bertanggal Oktober
1503.
buku ini tersimpan di
perpustakaan universitas
tersebut.
2 pertanyaan saya:
------------------
(1) apa buku tsb. selama ini
'hilang', ato sebetulnya
ada di perpustakaan tapi
tidak pernah 'terbaca'
(2) apakah penemuan di atas
mrpk. kebetulan ato memang
suatu 'proyek' penelitian
yang dibeayai pemerintah
jerman/EU?
it's just amusing for me to
contemplate on the possible
titles for this particular
research project that might
be chosen by the research
team when they wrote the
proposal to the German/EU
government(s):
*** ===============================================
*** "Solving the mistery of Mona Lisa's Smile"
*** -----------------------------------------------
*** an FP7 research project proposal submitted
*** to the Scientific Comission of European Union
*** ===============================================
ato mungkin
*** ===============================================
*** "Decoding another da Vinci's Code"
*** -----------------------------------------------
*** an FP7 research project proposal submitted
*** to the Scientific Comission of European Union
*** ===============================================

A 2007 handout photo shows a page from a book
at the University of Heidelberg Library with
a handwritten note on Leonardo da Vinci's Mona
Lisa portrait.
German academics said January 14, 2008, they
have helped to solve the centuries-long mystery
behind the identity of the 'Mona Lisa' in Leonardo
da Vinci's famous sixteenth-century portrait.
Experts at the Heidelberg University Library say
dated notes scribbled in the margins of a book
by its owner in October 1503 confirm once and for
all that Lisa Gherardini, the wife of a wealthy
Florentine merchant, Francesco del Giocondo, was
the model for one of the most famous portraits
in the world.
