 From 1973 to 1978:

 Mazzilli works a long period before he finishes his works;
 then, in 1976, he starts his International Exposition 
 of Chromosomic Peinture in Paris, 
 at the "Andre Weil" gallery, in Place de la Concorde.

 Here Mazzilli, with other painters, sets up the
 "Chromosomic School". (The Chromosomic theory is
 full explained in a special page, marked
 "CHROMOSOMIC"in the left side 
 of english Homepage bar menu.)

 From 1978 to 1998:

 In 1978 Mazzilli is associated in Academic Album
 about Tiberina Academy of Rome, for his studies.
 Using practical applications of his Chromosomic 
 Theory, he paints many big  works and experiences 
 great authors' art reproductions, like "La Gioconda",
 the chief work by Leonardo da Vinci.

 This work is painted by Mazzilli with a self-made
 technique, named "light". By this, the artist is going
 to reconstruct original luminance of the colours,
 as they could be painted by Leonardo today.
 
 


MONNA LISA'S SECRET Mazzilli uses special CAD equipped computers, high tech scanners and several sophisticated softwares able to focuse, reconstruct and zoom even the smallest particular of original work. Mazzilli, by several Internet researches, is working to discover the fascinating cause thath induced Leonardo to paint Monna Lisa's face in a particular way. In this time he is finding some data to demonstrate his theory, a deep secret which could be inside the Leonardo's Masterpiece.
