Isleworth and the Mona Lisa

It would seem Van Gogh may not have been Isleworth's only artistic connection:http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-19743875http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-19742773

There was this article in The Sunday Times (Toffs newspaper I know!).

I am so pleased that you posted about this, Phil.I missed the threads you are talking about Keith, and it was not spoken about when we did the Isleworth History tour a couple of years ago!Amazing that the painting lived at a house opposite the London Apprentice and that it is being called the Isleworth Mona Lisa!I record the overnight USA news on Sky and last night they did a piece from the riverbank showing the house and talking about the recent findings.Should bring in some more international tourists!  :-)

No mate, this one must have passed me by.

Blimey Phil, I thought you would have know about this before. It has been 'threaded'and posted about a few times over the years.It's up there for unusual,almost mystical realities with the Brentford Pocahontas connection imo.
