Tempietto-Bramante-Rome-Mona-Lisa-Code-04
The Tempietto: built in Rome by Bramante, Leonardo da Vinci's friend. Together they created a joint project to express the religious doctrine of the "Two Faces of the Soul." Bramante's architectural achievement was matched by Leonardo's painting of the Mona Lisa, which was a personification of the small chapel which sits at the top of the Janiculum hill--the site of the mythical citadel of the Sun-god Janus. Number four in a series of artistic interpretations of the Tempietto of Bramante in Rome. The Tempietto was the primary geographic focus for Leonardo da Vinci's masterwork--the Mona Lisa, also known as La Gioconda or La Joconde.
