class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La cath\u00e9drale de Sienne est l&rsquo;une des cath\u00e9drales romanes et gothiques les plus illustres d&rsquo;Italie et sa construction a impliqu\u00e9 plusieurs noms v\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9s dans l&rsquo;histoire de l&rsquo;art, ce qui en fait un monument important.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La construction du Duomo di Siena a commenc\u00e9 en 1226 et s&rsquo;est poursuivie pendant environ 175 ans. La fa\u00e7ade complexe a \u00e9t\u00e9 achev\u00e9e en deux \u00e9tapes. Cela semble \u00eatre un temps remarquablement court pour une structure aussi impressionnante et complexe. Surtout si l\u2019on consid\u00e8re les techniques de construction utilis\u00e9es \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9poque, employant des centaines, voire des milliers de ma\u00e7ons et d\u2019ouvriers. Certains des outils utilis\u00e9s sont expos\u00e9s dans le to\u00eet. Vous pouvez les voir en faisant le tour Porta di Cielo.     <\/p>\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;galleryId&quot;:&quot;6ac1011e72888&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/gallery\"

Personnellement, je n&rsquo;ai pas remarqu\u00e9 de teinte verte. La couleur est trop subjective. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plusieurs sources mentionnent que le noir et le blanc sont les couleurs symboliques de la ville de Sienne.
