Leonardo.

I have a long held theory based on the history of the Mona Lisa (Being recognized as a genderswapped self portrait he literally entitled “the Happy one” carried around by the artist and gifted to his gay lover after death) that the artist was trans.

I would absolutely love to potentially verify this because the idea that one of the most famous paintings in the world has been a trans gender affirming portrait in plain sight of art historians this whole time with nobody cluing in and writing a proper paper about it - is just kind of the best.
