Mustafa Umut Sarac submitted a new resource:

(there was a url link here which no longer exists) - What We see at Leitz Lenses is What Da Vinci spent his life on Mona Lisa

Its been found , the darker the tones on Mona Lisa , grains and tonal degrades are more turbulent but in the way of stronger amplitude pattern with compared to lighter tones , it means its a fractal tree.

It makes tonal degrades and shadows so complex , it would possible to gaze the portrait for couple of hours or days or lets say for mona lisa ,not be able to perceive it completely. may be thousands of researchers spent their lives for that problem.

And the glaze...​

I'd take your stuff more seriously if you were talking about a particular film, not about lenses.

Also, I'm sure Leonardo would be a Minolta freak if he were alive today. Just because Minolta is so cool to pronounce. "Minoltahh!"

I just saw an article that says the Mona Lisa is badly faded compared to a contempory copy of it by one of his students. Van Gogh' purples are fading fast to blues.

I'm not sure I get the connection to a lens. Spectroscopic and goniometric measurements have been made on gelatin-based color prints for many years.

meh, seems like another elitist way to justify exorbitant cost.
