How could it be otherwise, with an exceptional testimonial like Leonardo da Vinci?" It is the Romito bridge of Laterina, in the province of Arezzo, the one painted behind the Mona Lisa". This is stated by the historian Silvano Vinceti, already author in the past of other important discoveries on the most famous portrait in the world and president of the National Committee for the Enhancement of Historical, Cultural and Environmental Heritage. His recent research, presented last May 3 in Rome and conducted thanks to the collaboration of the cultural association La Rocca, has aroused enormous interest in every corner of the globe. The news of the correlation between the Valdarno territory and the landscape depicted by Leonardo has been spread by the main national and international newspapers and television, bouncing from Europe to Latin America, from Australia and New Zealand to the United States, up to China and Arabia.Ma the interest around the Romito Bridge shows no sign of stopping: after the recent services aired on Mediaset's national channels, in Laterina the arrival of foreign television crews is expected, which in the coming days will be present on site for new shots and interviews. There is also talk of a documentary." The research has gone much further than we thought, the media return has gone far beyond our expectations" declare the volunteers of the La Rocca di Laterina association "We are excited that the studies we had conducted so many years ago have finally been recognized and deepened by an illustrious historian like Silvano, whom we thank. We would like to dedicate an affectionate thought to Anselmo Rondoni and Massimo Gragnoli, the first fervent supporters of this thesis, who are no longer with us today".the photos and video footage for Silvano Vinceti's research were made by Mark Soetebier and Giovanni Mazierlisoon the documentary with direction and editing Mark Soetebier and Silvano Vinceti | | Nearby:   Valle dell'Inferno 2 km
