 Chinese collector of gems created the most expensive copy of the famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" (also known as "La Gioconda"). The man did not even painted, and laid out a picture from a vast variety of precious stones, aggregate nominal value of 100 000 carats.
It is no secret that many artists have tried to copy the creation of Leonardo, using not quite standard materials: coffee beans, slices of toast, and even its dung, but became the first Chinese millionaire, who wrote "Mona Lisa" with a huge number of precious stones.
The artist wished to remain anonymous, so all we know is that he is a very rich collector from the Chinese, who spent the last 30 years of his life to finding the right stones and another 5 years to create a precious copy of da Vinci's painting, laying stone for the pebble portrait of Madame Lisa Giocondo.
Agree, the creation of an anonymous artist is impressive, and not even looking at that picture is lined with precious stones, and not painted on canvas, it is very similar to the original.
Now the most unusual and expensive replica of Leonardo da Vici on display at the mall Chinese city of Shenyang.
