‘Lady with an Ermine’ in Berlin

Referred to as one of the portraits of women, Leonardo Da Vinci finished as well as parallel with his other masterpiece ‘Mona Lisa’, the portrait of Cecilia Gallerani when she was around 16 years old called ‘Lady with an Ermine’ will be coming to Berlin.

Also, the portrait loaned from the Czartoryski the Museum in Krakow, Poland, will be shifted temporarily to Berlin for exhibition, though its set far always to avoid it being touched by the public.

Hence, a lot of excited people are struggling to get front-row view of the portrait which is quite similar to that of Mona Lisa, as she has what is referred to as a ‘slightly mysterious smile’.

However, this is not the first time the portrait had been to Berlin. Earlier in 1939, shortly after the German invasion of Poland, the portrait was ceased from Krakow as well as sent to the Kaiser Friedrich Museum in Berlin and Hans Frank, the Nazi Governor General of Poland, tried and executed for war crimes. Later, he brought the portrait back to Krakow and hung in his office.

Moreover, the Berlin part of the exhibition is said to open to the public on the August 25, and operate until November 20, as many of the pieces will then be moved to the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the New York show starting on the December 19.
