"I will always remember the way she looked at me... and so will the world, for you have made her immortal."
―Ezio Auditore to Leonardo da Vinci, regarding Lisa, 1519.[src]-[m]

Lisa del Giocondo (1479 – 1542), born Lisa Gherardini and posthumously known as Mona Lisa, was an Italian noblewoman[1] who at one point shared romantic affection with the Italian Assassin Ezio Auditore. Centuries after her death, Lisa passed to posterity thanks to Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting which depicted her.

Biography[edit | edit source]

In 1504, while visiting her father's lands near Florence, Lisa rescued Ezio after she found him unconscious and lying among the bodies of mercenaries sent by Cesare Borgia that he had just killed. While his injuries healed, Ezio spent the following days in the barn as Lisa hid him from her husband and tended to his wounds. During their time together, the two developed mutual feelings, but due to Lisa's faithfulness to her husband and Ezio's own commitment to the Brotherhood, the Assassin left before anything could happen between them.[2]

The two met again a year later, when Ezio visited Leonardo after saving the unaware maestro from assassins sent after him. Entering his workshop, Ezio found Lisa posing for Leonardo. Upon recognizing him, the young lady gratified him with a smile, which Leonardo asked her to keep for the painting. Deciding not to disturb Leonardo, Ezio left without telling his friend about the failed attempt on his life and without speaking to Lisa. After this, Lisa and Ezio never saw each other again.[2]

In 1506, while visiting Leonardo in Rome, Ezio took a glance at the unfinished Mona Lisa, making a positive comment about the piece. However, Leonardo rebuked that Lisa was "badly drawn", with an overdone, meaningless smile.[3]

In 1519, in order to entertain a dying Leonardo, Ezio revealed to his friend how he had met Lisa before she posed for him. The now-elderly Assassin reminisced fondly of the encounter, claiming that he would never forget Lisa's smile and that, thanks to Leonardo's painting, neither would the world.[2] Shortly before his death, Leonardo gave the painting depicting Lisa to his longtime assistant, Salaì.[4]
