hehehhe time for my civil war obsession to come in handy

Lincoln needed to announce it right after a big win for the Union. Antietam happened to be a well timed one.

Doing it after a big victory would help reinforce the fact that he was doing the right thing in the war, and that he was a good leader (good enough to be re-elected).

Announcing it right after a loss would be viewed as a weak, desperate move, and Lincoln couldn't afford that if he was to be running again for president.

Answer:

Today we know Mona Lisa as one of the famous portrait paintings by Leonardo Da Vinci. The portrait painted between 1503 and 1506 after he received a commission.

Explanation:  

Mona Lisa considered being one of beautiful painting which reflects a famine beauty with its classical features. This painting represents classical beauty with naturalism and realism. The central figure in the portrait represents beauty with simplicity a plain woman, smiling, free of jewellery, smooth hair and a transparent veil on her head. The main focus of the painting is the woman’s face, where Da Vinci used the technique of chiaroscuro. As we are progressing towards modernity, the vision of beauty has changed rapidly. Today beauty is more of a turn into a fake, which influenced the use of cosmetics. Yes, Mona Lisa considered beautiful in American society today because it the beauty makes it valuable in my opinion.

Honestly, today people have forgotten what beauty represent. People attracted towards things which are not real. Beauty has its meaning where there is an old proverb that says; beauty is an eye of a beholder. According to Roger Scruton, beauty is a search for consensus.
