It is believed that the first painter to use linear perspective was Polygonus, in 5th Century BC Greece. We cannot be certain because Greeks painted only on wooden boards, none of which survive. The first modern painting to depict linear perspective was Masaccio's "The Tribute Money" which was done in Florence, Italy in the early 15th Century. It depicts a New Testament story.

Who is the inventor of perspective drawing?

Linear Perspective is a geometric method of representing on paper the way that objects appear to get smaller and closer together, the further away they are. The invention of linear perspective is generally attributed to the Florentine architect Brunelleschi, and the ideas continued to be developed and used by Renaissance artists, notably Piero Della Francesca and Andrea Mantegna. The first book to include a treatise on Perspective, 'On Painting' was published by Leon Battista Alberti in 1436.

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.


What convention did Italian High Renaissance painters often use to create the illusion of depth?

Fillipo Brunelleschi's linear perspective revolutionized drawing and painting. He was the first person to really nail down the rules of vanishing points and perspective grids. Linear perspective is the practice of using a horizon line, vanishing points and grids drawn in perspective to portray things (especially buildings and cityscapes) in realistic proportions and to calculate feats of engineering. This was a huge feature in Renaissance art.
