Part Four: Monologue
“Almost everyone knows the painting, Mona Lisa, but not everyone knows of its bizarre history. It was sold to the king of France, and later Napoleon hung it in his own bedroom. Then, in 1911, it was stolen from the Louvre by an Italian man. Apparently, he simply put the painting under his shoulder and walked out the front door. Museum attendants didn’t even notice the painting was missing until a day or so later. The Mona Lisa turned up after about a year and a half in the shop of an antique dealer in Italy. The man who had stolen the painting wanted it back in the artist’s home country and, after his mission accomplished, he was seen as a national hero by many. Italian authorities then returned it to the Louvre Museum, where it now hangs behind bullet proof glass.”
每個人都知道蒙娜·麗莎這幅畫，可是並非人人瞭解她的離奇的歷史。她早先是賣給了法國國王，隨後拿破崙把她掛在自己的臥室裏。之後，在1911年，她被一個意大利人從盧浮宮偷走。很明顯，這個人只是把這幅畫夾在自己的腋下從前門走出去。在畫被偷走的一兩天之後，盧浮宮的服務人員才發現畫被盜。約一年半之後，蒙娜·麗莎出現在意大利的一家古董店裏。當年偷了此畫的人想讓她重新回到畫家的國家，任務完成之後，他也被很多人視爲一個民族英雄。之後意大利當局把她歸還給盧浮宮，現在這幅畫正懸掛在宮內的防彈玻璃窗後面。
