Optical illusions are naturally found in nature, but were not studied until 450 BC in Rome. Roman thinkers correctly surmised that people's senses could play tricks on them. Optical illusions were not studied in depth until the 1800s.

Who invented perspective art?

Artists have employed the use of perspective for eons, however wobbly. Atmospheric perspective (where we see mountains receding into the mist and fog) has been used in Chinese and Japanese painting as well as in that of Northern Europe and Scandinavia. The person to really nail down linear perspective was engineer/architect Fillipo Brunelleschi. He is the one who came up with the iron-clad laws of vanishing points and perspective grids. This forever changed drawing and painting.


Explain the artistic techniques of perspective and chiaroscuro?

Perspective is a method that makes a drawing or painting look three-dimensional. Artists had tried to use perspective before, but Renaissance artists perfected it. Using perspective, objects in a scene appear to be at different distances away from the viewer. The result is a more realistic image. To make their paintings more realistic, artists had also used a technique called chiaroscuro. Chiaroscuro softened edges by using light and shadows instead of stiff outlines to separate objects. In Italian, chiaro means "clear or light," and oscuro means "dark." Chiaroscuro created more drama and emotion in a painting.
