1) Painted by a very famous and renowned man
2) Depicts a portrait against a fictional background, which was very rare at the time.
3) It's very old

Whatever it is, It's probably the thing you associate most with the painting.

Na, it's her refined pose; how her breast, neck and face radiate in the same light of the painting. How her right hand rest gracefully on her left, letting us know that she's both a virtuous and faithful woman. The semi-abstractness of he lack of facial hair, including eyelash and eyebrow is another instant grabber to the viewers eye.
"Oh, Pwned", *****.

I thought that was just the style back then?...the missing eyebrows, I mean.
Whoopie Goldberg didn't exist.
*checks the interwebz*
I have to be right.
Compare and contrast the Mona Lisa with the Maddalena Doni.
Edit - And eff you guys and your tiny monitors. Upgrade to widescreen, newbz.

There are countries in the world today who hold their slightly larger women up there as the most beautiful women in the world and find skinny women inferior compared. The women in the paintings are hardly that fat anyway, slight chubby.

rural areas in East Africa, especially Mauritania, find obese women to be beautiful.
There are social issues with forced feeding and heart disease.
