Glorify yourself and your family: A Portrait of Your Son

Your Wife

Leonardo's Sketch of Isabella D'Este Leonardo? I love that portrait of Mona Lisa, but have you seen his Last Supper in Milan? It's falling apart already. And poor Isabella D'Este is still waiting for him to finish her portrait! No, I won't let you spend our hard-earned money on that amateur.

Jester Leonardo was a genius, no doubt about it. Unfortunately, he did have trouble getting the job done and left many paintings unfinished. But even those leave us in awe of his talents!
