Do you notice how the lady in the side portrait with her husband does't have any eyebrows? It was the fashion in Renaissance Italy to shave them off. Mona Lisa doesn't have any eyebrows either.

Italian vulgar was a lingua franca, all the scholars, the mercants and aristocrats spoke italian,

@mynameisnterin That is a myth. Da Vinci painted the mona lisa with eyebrows. It was later restorations that painted them out.

@mynameisnterin In renaissance the beauty was the blonde woman with pale skin, red cheeks, light eyebrows and lashes. Dark eyes (in 1300s) and clear(in Renaissance) and high forehead, an intelligence symbol.

@comradetortoise well, the Milanese, the Venetians, Genoa and Rome still have their own dialects, but they are spoken together to Italian

[AntoniettaChines1222]

Awesome painting and early music!

@landsckenech

For info: The italian language was not unified at the time. There were a few dialiects, one for different regions. The Milanese had their own dialect, the Venetians another. Genoa and Rome had yet another pair. Florence had their own, which eventually (if I remember properly) became what we would consider standardized Italian that we know and love today.
