university of pisa althuugh popularly believed to have leaned some mme after the fourteenth century due to the sink tng of the earth under the menu ment records show the scholars assert that when construction reached a height of about 33 feet the foundation had ceded to one side by seven inches then under the supervision of bo- nanno da pisa the famous archi tect and sculptor who had carved in bronze the great door for the duo- mo in pisa u is believed that bd- nanno decided to preserve this lean both from a desire to attempt a new application of statics and because of the fame that would come to him u he succeeded id defense of this explanation it is pointed out that towers similar in design to the one in pisa were common throughout northern italy during the tenth eleventh and twelfth centuries and that bonanno might well have wished to be dis tinguished for something more than a bell tower to supplement pisa s new cathedral and chapel thus al though bonanno did not live to see the
