# Mona Lisa Tote Bag - Mona Lisa Holding a Cat Museum Art

## Mona Lisa Tote Bag: A Renaissance Smile with a Cat

**Leonardo da Vinci** blurred every edge of the Mona Lisa to make her smile shift. This Mona Lisa tote bag adds a cat to her arms. It is a lightweight, water-resistant polyester canvas bag, printed in full color and sized for a tablet. The long-haired cat has orange, white, and brown fur and wide green eyes. It rests against her dark gown and folded sleeves. Behind her, a green and amber landscape fades into misty blue.

### The Original Portrait

Leonardo painted the Mona Lisa in oil on a white poplar panel, probably between 1503 and 1506. He may have kept refining it until 1517. The sitter is traditionally Lisa del Giocondo, though her identity is not certain. Behind her, a vast landscape recedes to icy mountains, winding paths, and a distant bridge. It has normally hung in the Louvre in Paris since 1797. Fame grew after Vincenzo Peruggia stole it in August 1911.

### A Lady with an Animal

Leonardo painted another lady holding an animal. Lady with an Ermine dates to about 1489 to 1491 and shows Cecilia Gallerani, mistress of Duke Ludovico Sforza. The ermine was Sforza's emblem and a symbol of purity. The painting is now at the Czartoryski Museum in Krakow. So a pet in the sitter's arms has a Renaissance precedent.

### A Gentle Art Parody

Mona Lisa cat art is a classic joke. Swapping a symbolic ermine for a house cat is its best form. The cat looks calm, as if it owns the gallery. Sfumato softens the corners of her eyes and mouth, so her smile seems to shift. The digital print holds the glowing greens and ambers across the canvas weave. This funny cat tote bag carries the portrait on both sides. See more in our [animal art collection](https://www.museumize.com/collections/animal-art).

### Display and Care

Carry it to a gallery or hang it from a hook as casual wall art. Spot clean with a damp cloth and air dry. As a tablet tote bag, its narrow opening holds a tablet snugly, so slide it in flat.
