PARIS: France’s Louvre museum, home to Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, is putting the final touches to one of the biggest ever exhibitions of the Italian master’s work with the presence of the world’s most expensive painting agonisingly unresolved.

Louvre executives have requested its inclusion and still hope it will arrive for the show, giving an extra frisson of interest in the runup to its opening. Last week a Venetian judge authorized the loan of a few of da Vinci’s drawings, including the famous “Man of Vitruve”, which will be shown for two months only in Paris due to its fragility.

The exhibition also features infra-red imaging of paintings by da Vinci, revealing the layers of work that lie underneath the finished picture, so providing a glimpse of his working methods.
