La Citta Ideale

Leonardo is asking Piero about his concept of an ideal city.

Leonardo: So is your idea of a city an architectural ideal or is it closer to the social activities in a particular community?

Piero: Both. Both! Interesting conversations in a stimulating environment.

Leonardo: But you have put no people in your painting.

Piero: When I visited Urbino, no one was up.

Leonardo: Now you see, Piero, if I were to visit your city, I would suggest they don’t commercialize it, make it into a theme park for tourists.

Piero: No?

Leonardo: Another thing. I would invite Okinawa musicians like the Nenes to give a concert. Broaden its appeal and encourage visits across borders.
