Did you know the Mona Lisa was a Princess Boy?
Posted by Princess Boy on 2011-October-14 08:23:05 EDT, FridayThe name Mona Lisa is an anagram for "mon Salai", literally means "my little devil" which is what Da Vinci would call him in his notebooks.
His real name was Gian Giacomo Caprotti, a male apprentice, longtime companion and possible lover of Leonardo da Vinci. He was the main influence and a model for the "Mona Lisa" painting. In fact, Da Vinci used Salai as a model in a number of his paintings.
My favorite portrait of Salai is of course this one ;

What a princess boy!!!
Oddly enough, in my search results I came across a boychat link;

But I thought I'd bring the topic up again.
Here are a few more links that show evidence for this.

I find it ironic that the most recognized artworks in human history is in fact the portrait of what I consider to be the most beautiful people in the world.
Long live Salai! The most legendary Princess Boy of history!
