There’s a reason why people never smiled in old oil painting portraits: they couldn’t hold their smile for that long.
Imagine having to sit while an artist painted you for hours on end. It’s hard enough to keep a smile as someone fumbles around with their digital camera.
That’s why everyone loves the Mona Lisa. At least she’s grinning a bit.
