Perspective Filippo Brunelleschi developed the laws of

perspective. Masaccio was among the first to use Brun

elleschi's rules to achieve the illusion of perspective in his paintings.

Leon Battista Alberti theorized the method in the book On Painting

Definition Perspective in art is a method of graphically

depicting three-dimensional objects and spatial relationships in two-dimensional planes.

The illusion of depth in a painting, drawing, or graphic is created using the perspective method.

Perspective is based on elementary laws of optics: objects in the distance appear smaller and less distinct than objects that are near.

Aerial or atmospheric interference with visual perception causes loss of contrast, detail and sharp focus. The effect, which Leonardo called "the perspective of disappearance," tends to make objects seem to take on a blue-gray middle value as they increase in distance. This effect is used by film makers to give the illusion of great depth, but can be used to great effect by painters and draughtsmen. The illustration above shows loss of color saturation, contrast, and detail as the cubes fall further away from the viewer.

Nude vs. Naked“A naked body has to be seen

as an object in order to become a nude.”

“Nakedness reveals itself. Nudity is placed on display.”

(John Berger, Ways of Seeing, 1972)

In the average European oil painting of the nude the principal protagonist is never painted. He is the spectator in front of the picture and he is presumed to be a man. Everything is addressed to him. Everything must appear to be the result of his being there. It is for him that the figures have assumed their nudity. But he, by definition, is a stranger—with his clothes still on.

(John Berger, Ways of Seeing, 1972)

The mirror is the focal point of the whole composition. It has often been noted that two tiny figures can be seen reflected in it, their image captured as they cross the threshold of the room. They are the painter himself and a young man, perhaps arriving to act as witnesses to the marriage. The essential point, however, is the fact that the convex mirror is able to absorb and reflect in a single image both the floor and the ceiling of the room, as well as the sky and the garden outside, both of which are otherwise barely visible through the side window. The mirror thus acts as a sort of hole in the texture of space. It sucks the entire visual world into itself, transforming it into a representation. http://gallery.euroweb.hu/html/e/eyck_van/jan/15arnolf/15arnol3.html

“Indeed, in this tribute to male beauty, Donatello rejected the medieval view of the human body as the wellspring of sin and anticipated the modern Western exaltation of the body as the seat of pleasure” (Fiero 395).
