Another theory of Mona Lisa.

An art historian believes she has identified the bridge in the painting at the river Trebbia at Bobbio and the serpent style road in the painting is still visible there. 

Clara Glori is confident that Mona Lisa is Bianca Giovanna Sforza daughter of Ludovico il Moro a noble man who lived 500 years ago and controlled Bobbio, a pivotal cultural center with a major cross roads and castle at its center aaso had a library of note. 

The valley of Bobbio was described by Hemingway as the most beautiful in the world.  The bridge or Devil's Bridge was so named through legend that the Devil constructed it one night after a pact with Saint Columbanus who promised the soul of the first passerby but the Saint sent a dog instead.

Da Vinci expert, Martin Kemp differs and declares Mona Lisa is Italian noble woman Lisa del Giocondo and sees no similarity to the bridge at Bobbio.
