[12-6] MONA LISA MYSTERY INTERESTING COPY

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS (ABC NEWS)(OC): And finally tonight, could [1]a priceless painting actually be a copy?  Mona Lisa, Da Vinci's mysterious masterpiece is now [2]being challenged by a younger rival.  Her owners, of course, have millions of reasons to believe that their painting is the original.  So, ABC's Jeffrey Kofman takes a close look so you can decide for yourself.

JEFFREY KOFMAN (ABC NEWS)(VO): Could it be the most famous painting in the world now has a twin?

ANNOUNCER (MALE): Mona Lisa, Leonardo's earlier version.

JEFFREY KOFMAN (ABC NEWS)(VO): That's what the owners of the so-called Isleworth Mona Lisa told the world today.  [3]Hidden in a Swiss bank vault for almost half a century, [4]it emerged accompanied by a stack of "evidence" meant to prove that this was Leonardo Da Vinci's first version of this, a younger Mona Lisa.  Note the perkier smile.  [5]The original has always been surrounded by intrigue, her eyes said to reveal a secret code or the artist's signature.  But a second Mona Lisa?

JEFFREY KOFMAN (ABC NEWS)(OC): There are a lot of reasons to be suspect of this wannabe Da Vinci.  One of them?  It only surfaced in Isle worth here in England in 1914.  There is no record of its existence before then.

JEFFREY KOFMAN (ABC NEWS)(OC): And [6]what does it add up to?

MARTIN KEMP (LEONARDO DA VINCI SCHOLAR AT OXFORD UNIV): Well, [7]it adds up to being an interesting copy.

JEFFREY KOFMAN (ABC NEWS)(OC): An interesting copy?

MARTIN KEMP (LEONARDO DA VINCI SCHOLAR AT OXFORD UNIV): No more than that.

JEFFREY KOFMAN (ABC NEWS)(VO): There are many reasons to believe this is a copy by [8]a lesser artist.  First, the younger painting is on canvas.  Leonardo painted on wood.  The background on the younger Mona Lisa, is, well, muddy, not like the masterpiece.  But [9]the real give away?  [10]Translucence.  In the original, [11]layers of light.  They're just not there in the other one.

MARTIN KEMP (LEONARDO DA VINCI SCHOLAR AT OXFORD UNIV): When you look, you just go, wow.  You look at that Mona Lisa and you go - ah.

JEFFREY KOFMAN (ABC NEWS)(VO): A new Leonardo would be worth at least $100 million.  But imagine, with only about 20 of his works in existence, how exciting it would be to discover one more.  Jeffrey Kofman, ABC News, Oxford.
