...months ago Benito Mussolini seemed so deeply committed to the big military job of maintaining Austria's independence against Germany that, on that issue and certain others vital to Adolf Hitler, suave British diplomatists could flirt politely with Berlin's Nazis, leaving Italy to bear the brunt of German wrath. By last week Il Duce had all Europe guessing whether he and Der Führer may not soon get together in a deal as to Austria's future, and in London the welkin rang with reverberations of anti-British editorials splashed out in Rome...

...Isabella by Leonardo in Vienna's Imperial Museum and another in Leonardo's signet ring in the royal archives in Mantua. His difficulty was that the Mona Lisa is nearly full-face, but he thought he saw similarities.
