Langdon
,
now
having
made
it
clear
to
Sophie
that
he
had
no
intention
of
leaving
,
moved
with
her
across
the
Salle
des
Etats
.
The
Mona
Lisa
was
still
twenty
yards
ahead
when
Sophie
turned
on
the
black
light
,
and
the
bluish
crescent
of
penlight
fanned
out
on
the
floor
in
front
of
them
.
She
swung
the
beam
back
and
forth
across
the
floor
like
a
minesweeper
,
searching
for
any
hint
of
luminescent
ink
.
Walking
beside
her
,
Langdon
was
already
feeling
the
tingle
of
anticipation
that
accompanied
his
face
-
to
-
face
reunions
with
great
works
of
art
.
He
strained
to
see
beyond
the
cocoon
of
purplish
light
emanating
from
the
black
light
in
Sophie
’
s
hand
.
To
the
left
,
the
room
’
s
octagonal
viewing
divan
emerged
,
looking
like
a
dark
island
on
the
empty
sea
of
parquet
.

Langdon
could
now
begin
to
see
the
panel
of
dark
glass
on
the
wall
.
Behind
it
,
he
knew
,
in
the
confines
of
her
own
private
cell
,
hung
the
most
celebrated
painting
in
the
world
.
The
Mona
Lisa
’
s
status
as
the
most
famous
piece
of
art
in
the
world
,
Langdon
knew
,
had
nothing
to
do
with
her
enigmatic
smile
.
Nor
was
it
due
to
the
mysterious
interpretations
attributed
her
by
many
art
historians
and
conspiracy
buffs
.
Quite
simply
,
the
Mona
Lisa
was
famous
because
Leonardo
Da
Vinci
claimed
she
was
his
finest
accomplishment
.
He
carried
the
painting
with
him
whenever
he
traveled
and
,
if
asked
why
,
would
reply
that
he
found
it
hard
to
part
with
his
most
sublime
expression
of
female
beauty
.
Even
so
,
many
art
historians
suspected
Da
Vinci
’
s
reverence
for
the
Mona
Lisa
had
nothing
to
do
with
its
artistic
mastery
.
In
actuality
,
the
painting
was
a
surprisingly
ordinary
sfumato
portrait
.
Da
Vinci
’
s
veneration
for
this
work
,
many
claimed
,
stemmed
from
something
far
deeper
:
a
hidden
message
in
the
layers
of
paint
.
The
Mona
Lisa
was
,
in
fact
,
one
of
the
world
’
s
most
documented
inside
jokes
.
The
painting
’
s
well
-
documented
collage
of
double
entendres
and
playful
allusions
had
been
revealed
in
most
art
history
tomes
,
and
yet
,
incredibly
,
the
public
at
large
still
considered
her
smile
a
great
mystery
.
No
mystery
at
all
,
Langdon
thought
,
moving
forward
and
watching
as
the
faint
outline
of
the
painting
began
to
take
shape
.
No
mystery
at
all
.

Most
recently
Langdon
had
shared
the
Mona
Lisa
’
s
secret
with
a
rather
unlikely
group
–
a
dozen
inmates
at
the
Essex
County
Penitentiary
.
Langdon
’
s
jail
seminar
was
part
of
a
Harvard
outreach
program
attempting
to
bring
education
into
the
prison
system
–
Culture
for
Convicts
,
as
Langdon
’
s
colleagues
liked
to
call
it
.
Standing
at
an
overhead
projector
in
a
darkened
penitentiary
library
,
Langdon
had
shared
the
MonaLisa
’
s
secret
with
the
prisoners
attending
class
,
men
whom
he
found
surprisingly
engaged
–
rough
,
but
sharp
.
«
You
may
notice
,
»
Langdon
told
them
,
walking
up
to
the
projected
image
of
the
MonaLisa
on
the
library
wall
,
»
that
the
background
behind
her
face
is
uneven
.
»
Langdon
motioned
to
the
glaring
discrepancy
.
«
Da
Vinci
painted
the
horizon
line
on
the
left
significantly
lower
than
the
right
.
»
«
He
screwed
it
up
?
»
one
of
the
inmates
asked
.
