  Standing at an impressive 60-feet tall, this new feature on the US landscape is certainly a traffic stopper.

  Motorists have been left open-mouthed at the sight of this landscape image of Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous masterpiece, the Mona Lisa.

  Motorist Janet Hunter pulled her car over to take a photograph of the vision about four miles east of Newport, Virginia.

  “It’s unbelievable,”she said.“It’s fantastic.”

  The amazing reproduction of the Mona Lisa has been created by local artist Samuel Clemens, who says he has been waiting to create a piece of landscape art since he was a child.

  “I was always going to do the Mona Lisa,”said Clemens, 48,“I did it because the Mona Lisa is the most recognized thing.”

  The masterpiece was recreated by making a stencil(模板)on a canvas, then dusting the hillside with black painting.It took him 14 hours just to lay out the canvas and another nine to spray the 40-by-60-foot painting.

  “Whenever someone makes the effort, you have to stop and appreciate it,”said Becky Stillwell of Albany, who brought her guests from Boston to view the work.“Otherwise, people stop doing interesting things.”

  Mr.Clemens bought the dairy farm where the Mona Lisa now stands eight years ago with a view to creating the masterpiece on the 60-degree slope behind it.

  “I was worried about the detail because the hill isn’t smooth,”he said.“It isn’t like a piece of paper.As it was, I lost a little smile at the corner of her mouth.”

  The Mona Lisa will disappear as the grass grows, but Clemens already has plans for 2007, although he is remaining tight-lipped over the details.

[  ]

“Dad! He took a book without paying!” I yelled (大叫). My father looked surprised. Before the boy could say anything, his mother grabbed his arm and shook it. “Is it true? You stole? Tell me!” Everyone was quiet. The boy began to cry, and he nodded (点头) his head. He pulled out the comic book (漫画书) from under his shirt. “Oh, Mr Kim. I am sorry! My Ted made a big mistake!” Mrs Diaz told my father. She tried to take the comic book, but Ted wouldn’t let go. “It’s OK. He can keep it,” my father said with a smile. “Oh, no,” Mrs Diaz said. “Let me pay right now…” She dug in her purse. “How much?” “Three seventy-five.”
Mrs Diaz’s eyes widened, and she dug deeper. I saw her mouth make a small line. “Three seventy-five?” she asked.
“It’s OK. You can pay later,” my father said. “No,” Mrs Diaz said. She kept looking in her purse. “I have money here.” I felt bad for yelling, for I realized that Ted had tried to steal the comic book because he didn’t have the money. Maybe the boy could have a job, I thought. I had an idea. “What if he worked with me?” I asked. They turned to me. I said, “He can work with me to pay for the comic book.” “Good,” my father said smiling at me. Mrs Diaz nodded. She turned to her son, “You hear? You will work and buy the comic book!” “ Yes, Mama,” Ted said, hanging his head.
As they left, Ted looked back, and though he still seemed sad, he stuck out (伸出) tongue at me.
Ted has been working here for two weeks. He has paid for the comic book, but my father says he is such a good worker that he can work with me as long as he wants. We are friends now.
