The first mathematical system of perspective in painting was developed during the early Renaissance, specifically in the early 15th century. It is most notably attributed to the Italian painter and architect Filippo Brunelleschi, who demonstrated linear perspective in Florence, Italy. This system allowed artists to create the illusion of depth and three-dimensionality on flat surfaces, revolutionizing the art of painting.

In ancient Greece, starting around 400 BC
The first mathematical system of perspective in painting is attributed to the Italian artist and architect Filippo Brunelleschi in the early 15th century. His work laid the foundation for linear perspective, allowing artists to create the illusion of depth and space on a flat surface. This technique was further developed by artists such as Leon Battista Alberti and Masaccio, who applied these principles in their artworks. Brunelleschi's innovations revolutionized the way space was represented in art.
