Front cover: Lillian F. Schwartz, Mona Leo, computer-generated image, 1987. Side-by-side juxtapositioned halves of the Mona Lisa and reversed Self-Portrait by Leonardo da Vinci. The striking unity of these two 'different' subjects led Lillian Schwartz to identify Leonardo as the primary model for the Mona Lisa, thereby bringing the 500-year-old riddle of the

identity of the celebrated surface Mona Lisa to a remarkable conclusion. Mona Leo ? 1987 Lilyan Productions, Inc. All rights reserved.
