The second Mrs. Giaconda

E. L. Konigsburg

The greatest artist of his time . . . an apprentice with a larcenous heart and an aversion to the truth . . . a young duchess whose plain face belies her beautiful soul. Could the complex ways these three lives intertwine hold the key to a historical riddle - why did Leonardo da Vinci devote three years to painting the second wife of an unimportant merchant?
