# The best known Dadaist piece- at least to my knowledge
Is the addition of a moustache to the Mona Lisa. Mainwaring is remembered for his ebullient ginger tache.

Edit: Although that would mean potentially conforming to a structured view of art.

# Haha, of course.
Oddly enough I once spent ages photoshopping the moustache out of that picture.

# Today I learned
That there was an after shot of the Mona Lisa.

NSFW if your boss doesn't like Renaissance nudes.

# Now that's a proper smile.
Perhaps in the other one she was saying, "When can I get me baps out?" the fervid wench.

# Maybe it was just a hot day
She was trying to smile in the first one but it was uncomfortable.

# The short version is that I stuck a bunch of coins and coathangers into the pots before I fired them, and then did a bunch of sketches to make it look like that's what I set out to do.

# Haha
I don't remember hearing that before. I was much more stupid than that at school.

# Duchamp later created another piece called "L.H.O.O.Q. Shaved"
which was a postcard of the Mona Lisa without the mustache drawn on.
