About this ebook
La struttura esterna in mattoni si diversifica dall’interno dove una singolare scala a chiocciola ricavata nella sezione muraria sale secondo una traiettoria elicoidale e, avvolgendosi intorno all’asse ideale della fabbrica, genera un occhio che si comporta come il fusto di una colonna, qui sostituito dal vuoto: una grandiosa scultura in negativo a volume coclide. Un’architettura rinascimentale di altissimo valore, un’invenzione in cui la straordinaria complessità geometrica che si accompagna a una geniale sapienza tecnologico-costruttiva fa ipotizzare Michelangelo quale progettista, evidenziando le congruità di questa architettura con i suoi principi scultorei. | The exterior brick structure differs from the interior where a unique spiral staircase dug out of the wall rises along a helicoidal trajectory and circling around the ideal axis of the tower, creates an 'eye' that acts like the shaft of a column, which in this case is replaced by empty space: a magnificent negative cochlear-like sculpture. It is an extremely important Renaissance architecture, a design in which its incredibly complex geometry is accompanied by a brilliant technological and building expertise. This association points to Michelangelo as the designer due to the similarities between the principles governing this architecture and the ones which inspired his sculptures.
