Well four years is a long time but I saw a TV programme that suggested Da Vinci himself took even longer to get that smile right... perhaps decades!

Madcap artist John Williams has finished his painting of the Mona Lisa - after taking FOUR and HALF YEARS getting her famous smile right.
Amateur artist John has spent 1,500 hours perfecting the Da Vinci masterpiece.
He even vowed to destroy the canvas if it was not completed by the time he turned 81
But the amateur artist finally finished emulating the captivating lips just days before his birthday - hanging the picture on his living room wall.
