VISION


THE SMILE of Mona Lisa, the portrait by Leonardo da Vinci, seems to have been decoded.

A Dutch emotion-recognition programme has determined that her smile is 83 per cent happy, 9 per cent disgusted, 6 per cent fearful and 2 per cent angry.

A Japanese forensics expert has studied her skeletal structure and deduced her voice using this, and claims it was low for a woman. Another researcher analysed the position of her hands folded over her body and declared that she was pregnant.


VISION IS THE ART OF SEEING WHAT

IS INVISIBLE TO OTHERS
