The classic portrait of Mona Lisa has been revamped into a creation of 3,604 coffee cups. Although it would be hard to recognize the beauty from close up, from a birds-eye view, her portrait is quite visible.

Mona Lisa has had several makeovers, from artists using Post-it notes to making her part of their lawn art.

Check out the image above to see Mona Lisa’s conversion into a caffeine addict with the use of thousands of coffee cups.
