dc.descriptionClose view of the tower, depicting stacked blind arcades; Bonanno was the designer of the bronze doors of Pisa Cathedral. Giorgio Vasari, a 16th-century biographer of artists, reports that the so-called Leaning Tower of Pisa was begun by Bonanno Pisano, and he is buried there, but modern research indicates the plan of the tower may have been by Gherardo di Gherardo.
