Mona Lisa's voice?

A scientist claims to have recreated the Mona Lisa's real voice by measuring her face and hands and modeling her skull. Matsumi Suzuki told Reuters that he's confident that the voice is 90 percent accurate. Of course, we'll never know. From the Reuters article:

"I am the Mona Lisa. My true identity is shrouded in mystery," the portrait proclaims on a Web site.

"In Mona Lisa's case, the lower part of her face is quite wide and her chin is pointed," Suzuki explained. "The extra volume means a relatively low voice, while the pointed chin adds mid-pitch tones," he added…

The team also attempted to recreate Leonardo's own voice in a project timed to coincide with the release of the film "The Da Vinci Code." Suzuki said he was less confident about its accuracy because he had to work from self-portraits where the artist wore a beard, concealing the shape of his face.

Suzuki's work has made contributions to criminal investigations — in one case after he successfully aged a person's voice by a decade. A recording of the voice was broadcast on television, leading to the apprehension of a suspect.
