Three Fates of Mona Art Series by Orlando Arocena
The Mona Lisa, properly called La Giaconda, by Leonardo da Vinci is one of the most important paintings in the history of art. It is also probably the most parodied painting in the history of art. The most devastating take is L.H.O.O.Q. by Marcel Duchamp, but these horror inspired versions by Orlando Arocena are pretty great in their own right, and very seasonally appropriate. Arocena has repainted the famous merchant’s wife in the guise of three different horror villains. The title 3 Fates of Mona cheekily suggests that there is a killer in all of us, or really, three killers in all of us.
