Mona Lisa 'Gangster' Pop Art Canvas Print

This item is a canvas art print, likely reproduced, featuring a satirical and modern interpretation of Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa. The physical characteristics indicate it is a rectangular canvas stretched over a frame, with visible edges suggesting a standard gallery wrap. The color palette is vibrant and bold, typical of pop art, utilizing stark contrasts of black, white, peach tones for skin, a strong red for lips, various blues for the bandana and hair, and pinks/blues for nail polish. The 'Mona Lisa' character is depicted with a contemporary 'gangster' or 'rebel' aesthetic, wearing a blue bandana with white and red patterns, holding a detailed black handgun in one hand with a pink and blue manicure, and fanning out several hundred-dollar bills (with what appears to be Benjamin Franklin's portrait visible on one) in the other. She also has a lit cigarette dangling from her mouth, exhaling smoke, and is shown with long dark hair and a gold, fringed garment as a top. The handgun features intricate, almost tribal-like, white patterning on its frame. The style is distinctly pop art, characterized by its graphic, comic-book-like outlines and flat areas of color. The artwork appears to be in excellent condition with no discernible damage, wear, or fading visible from the image. Its quality is indicated by the crisp lines and vibrant color saturation, suggesting a well-produced print. No specific artist's signature or maker's mark is visible in the provided image; however, such pieces are often adaptations of well-known pop art styles and are likely post-2000 given the contemporary nature of the satire.
