Canvas looks again at some of the world's most famous paintings previously seen in the series First Eleven.
The superstar: the world's most famous painting, the most celebrated smile of all time. She's been eulogised, commercialised and satirised for centuries; but how did this unknown Italian girl become a household name in the first place, and what does that smile mean?
