Albert Mayer was the original architect and planner who designed Chandigarh in 1949, though he withdrew after the death of his partner Matthew Nowicki. Le Corbusier later joined and became the more famous architect who actually built much of the city, but Mayer was the original designer. This makes the question technically correct but potentially confusing.

'Tintoretto-r-Jishu' (The Christ of Tintoretto) is the Feluda novel where a famous painting by the Italian Renaissance master Tintoretto is in possession of the Niyogi family. This story involves art theft and revolves around this valuable painting. 'Hatyapuri' involves a murder mystery. 'Robertsoner Ruby' involves a ruby. 'Gangtok-e Gondogol' is set in Gangtok.

The book 'Tintoretto-r-Jishu' revolves around a famous painting by Italian maestro Tintoretto depicting Jesus, which is with the Niyogi family. This is a classic Feluda mystery combining art history with detective fiction.

Leonardo da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa between 1503-1519. It is now displayed at the Louvre Museum in Paris. The artwork's correct name is 'Mona Lisa' (not 'Mono Lisa'). The other Da Vinci names (Frederick, Charles, Ricardo) are fictitious.

Michelangelo painted the famous Sistine Chapel ceiling between 1508 and 1512, commissioned by Pope Julius II. The work includes iconic scenes like the Creation of Adam. Da Vinci was his contemporary but not involved in this project.

The Mona Lisa is Leonardo da Vinci's most famous painting, created in the early 16th century.

Le Corbusier, the Swiss-French architect and urban planner, designed Chandigarh in the 1950s after India's partition. He created the master plan and key government buildings, making it one of his major urban planning achievements.

The Mona Lisa is famously noted for her lack of visible eyebrows. Art historians debate whether Leonardo da Vinci intended this effect, whether they were removed during restoration, or whether shaving foreheads was a contemporary fashion trend.
