Drawing in Real Perspective

- A History of artistic perspective and a new approach to drawing

Om Drawing in Real Perspective

In this book we learn how to draw using a natural technique that is amazingly efficient and simple. Real Perspective is a new approach to space as seen by our eyes. Perspective is an integral part of drawing and painting. It is however poorly understood today. Our representation of perspective in western countries dates from the 17th century, enforced by an edict made by Louis XIV despot of France. It consisted of drawing receding straight lines starting from a vanishing point. However, the ancient Greeks used specific curves. This heritage was not taken up during the Renaissance. In an investigative atmosphere, this book unmasks beliefs we received on the Renaissance and our contemporary culture. We learn to believe what we see. We rediscover again the Greek knowledge, and the researches among others of Leonardo da Vinci, Henri Matisse and David Hockney. Real Perspective is a new approach of space as seen by our eyes.
