The geometry of an art : the history of the mathematical theory of perspective from Alberti to Monge
This monograph describes how the understanding of the geometry behind perspective evolved between the years 1435 and 1800 and how new insights within the mathematical theory of perspective influenced the way the discipline was presented in textbooks. In order to throw light on these issues, the auth...
