The Czartoryski Museum reopens its doors to visitors on the 20th of December, 2019! If you're looking for a reason to see Lady with an Ermine in real life, here's a good one: there are only four known and surviving female portraits painted by the great Leonardo da Vinci, and Lady with an Ermine is one of them. To top it off, outside of Italy and France, there are only a few select countries displaying da Vinci's artworks. So, why not check out the Lady with an Ermine and see for yourself whether she gives Mona Lisa a run for her money? Look at the painting closely, and maybe you'll be able to spot the parts that have been painted over or "touched up" over the years (hint: pay special attention to the veil over her hair, the detail and shading in her hands, and of course, the sombre black background).
