From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Details 426 showed part of the walls of the Sala dei Giganti - the Room of the Giants - in the Palazzo del Te, Mantua, the palace of the Gonzaga Court, built and decorated by Giulio Romano, 1526-34. This chamber has an all-round, floor-to-ceiling, trompe l'oeil fresco illustrating the fall of the Titans - a stupendous, almost ludicrous spectacular, with its cast of lumbering muscle-men, halfway between Michelangelo and the Incredible Hulk, whose tumbling bodies are incorporated into an illusion of collapsing architecture and hurtling rocks. The painting was done by assistants, chiefly Rinaldo da Faenza, under Giulio's supervision; as usual, any answer on the right lines would do.
The three winners are: B Barnes, London SW8; P Cousins, St Helens; and M Rubens, Ipswich
