Perspective Pictures and Visual Perception

Boris Viktorovich Rauschenbach

Open publisher page 8 citations

Abstract

The author analyzes the possibilities of developing a system of scientific perceptual perspective by means of interior pictures. Analysis shows that many different perspective pictures of one interior viewed from the same point may exist, all of them being equivalent (i.e. containing an equal sum of distortions of visual perception). The author believes that Renaissance perspective cannot set the aesthetic standard for a ‘correct’ perspective because it is only one of the possible variants.
