It's easier to find Mona Lisa than to find Waldo, as I've known for many years of collecting a variety of appropriations, interpretations, and re-uses of her famous face. Here are a few of her recent appearances in a variety of websites (none of these are my original photos). Of course the original sites are likely to disappear from the web eventually, but I've saved the images.

In a Japanese Rice Paddy

From the Spoon and Tamago blog: "Seven different varieties of rice are planted in early June....
They take roughly 1 month to grow, slowly filling out and completing the artwork." |

This image is labeled "Auction Failed," so I guess no one wanted it.

More of the usual parody images

Having a Glass of Wine
And in Brussels this summer
This image collection assembled for mae’s food blog.
Nice collection from recent images you found. Somehow, I thought I needed to find the murals and photograph them. This post really changes things.
ReplyDeleteAll of the artwork is impressive but the Japanese rice paddy is something else!
ReplyDeleteI love all these variations on the Mona Lisa which are particularly pleasing. I have a whole series that I made myself that I should think about putting online one day.
ReplyDeleteOh this is so cool! Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteI only learned about Waldo three years ago!!! Crazy, isn´t it!
ReplyDeleteVery cool, creative variations of ML.
NFT Art to me makes no sense. Who on earth would want to buy a virtual piece of art?
ReplyDeleteWow, who knew Mona Lisa was so popular? That first mural, the rice paddy and the Bolivian one are my favourites.
ReplyDeleteThanks for participating in Monday Murals Mae.
Hello,

That is a hoot!
