Digging Up Davinci

2010 January 27

This is not a new theory.  People have been thinking that the Mona Lisa looked a lot like Davinci’s self-portrait for a long time.  But, to support a theory that he was painting himself deliberately in “drag”….  well, OK, I guess it’s a theory.  But to propose actually exhuming the corpse to do DNA testing?  Huh?  Seriously?  Where exactly is the “drag” gene?

      What’s the deal with digging up artists? First, it’s Carrivaggio and now DaVinci?
