Mona Lisa (La Gioconda) was a painting commissioned by her husband, Francesco del Giocondo, which is why Leonardo da vinci made the famous portrait. Da Vinci then left for France and kept it. Francesco del Giocondo was a banker. Da Vinci kept the painting because he hardly ever finished any of his projects, and since he did finish this one and he was pleased with it he kept it. The King of France also wanted this artwork, but Leo didn't want to part with it. So the King let him keep it till he died.
