Why does the Mona Lisa actually smile? Who invented photography? What painting hung upside down for over a month before anyone noticed? Misconceptions often circulate in the world of fine art: for example, that all artists are young and poor, or that Walt Disney actually created Mickey Mouse. This book reveals the truth about the first photobomb in 1843, the destruction of Van Gogh's 'Sunflowers' during World War II, how Damien Hirst's 'Spot Painting' was sent to Mars, and much more.
