How are those conceptions made manifest in the arts? The essays in this volume address these and similar questions to establish important theoretical and philosophical bases for artistic production in the Renaissance and beyond. The essays also attend to the views of historically significant writers from the ancient classical period to the eighteenth century, including Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, St Augustine, Ibn Sina (Avicenna), Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen), Ibn Sahl, Marsilio Ficino, Nicholas of Cusa, Leon Battista Alberti, Gian Paolo Lomazzo, Gregorio Comanini, John Davies, Rene Descartes, Samuel van Hoogstraten, and George Berkeley.Visual culture in early modernity.Visual perceptionHistoryVisionHistoryPerspectiveHistoryArtPhilosophyArt, RenaissanceVisual perceptionHistory.VisionHistory.PerspectiveHistory.ArtPhilosophy.Art, Renaissance.701.8Carman Charles H777391Hendrix John899828MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910800174203321Renaissance theories of vision3873299UNINA
