The Mona Lisa, quoted as "the best known, the most visited, the most written about, the most sung about, the most parodied work of art in the world". To paint this portrait, Leonardo da Vinci required a canvas, an Easel (stand on which canvas is placed), and colours. To paint any painting, painter requires these three things but not every painting becomes a legend.
There are millions of paintings, painted by thousands of painters but only some of them maintain their significance through the course of time. Similarly, there are numerous life paintings but only a few of them are legends.
The question which arises is, what is that factor which makes a painting or life's portrait legendary?
For any painting to become legendary, there are 3 requirements
1. Stable Easel
The first and foremost thing to make a good portrait is that the painter must have a stable easel so that the canvas is stable. The time (canvas) of each individual is divided into his personal life, his work and self-development. Most people try to balance only two legs at a time which result in an unstable easel.
If you maintain a balance between personal life and work but forgot about the 3rd which is self-development, your work will slowly gets affected, which results in disturbance of the work life balance and in turn you have an unstable easel. Similary if you try to maintain a balance between work and self development, personnal life suffers and again easel is destabalized.
