Mandello del Lario ( Lecchese: ) is an Italian town and ''comune'' in the province of Lecco, in Lombardy, on Lake Como.

Saint George's church Saint George's church has a single hall with a visible truss ceiling and a quadrangular apse with a cross-vaulted ceiling. Its present aspect is due to restoration work which began in the 14th century, to a building which had already existed since the 11th century. A holy-water font decorated with a geometrical twisting floral motif (very popular in the Como area between the 6th and 11th century) on the font and with a relief (not very prominent) showing a cross on the sides, is preserved from the original building.

Jeanne Mandello
Jeanne Mandello (née Johanna Mandello; 18 October 1907, Frankfurt – 17 December 2001, Barcelona) was a German modern artist and experimental photographer. Early years and education Mandello grew up in an art-loving, secular Jewish family in Frankfurt. Her mother, Amalia Margarethe Mandello, born Seligsohn, was a kindergarten teacher and died when Johanna was 14 years old; her father, Hermann Mandello, was until 1934 Director of the department store Kaufhaus Wronker. She graduated from high school in 1925. The following year, she began studying photography at Lette-Verein. In a time when it was difficult for a woman to get attention as an artist, photography opened a way into the art world. Inspired by the spirit of freedom in Berlin in the 1920s, the women's movement offered an opportunity to go out, attended theater performances, concerts, exhibitions and decide on the model of the "new woman", imitating Grete Stern and Ellen Auerbach who wore pants and short hair.
