Transcription
Origins
The album takes its title from a deeply personal experience that Carlos Santana had when he visited the Louvre in Paris for the first time and saw Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, Mona Lisa. The artist explains to Rolling Stone that although he had been playing concerts in Paris since the early Seventies, he had never visited the Louvre until 2016.[3] And once he did, he noticed a line like "you'd see for Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Rihanna or Adele... I was like, 'Damn, Mona Lisa's really popular worldwide to this day.'"[3]
Described as "dramatic", as well as "spellbinding and transportive",[4] the album stems from recollections of a dream that Carlos Santana had months after his experience seeing the iconic work of art.
