Jelley, Jane

doi:10.1163/22134913-00002006

Double Vision as a Pictorial Depth Cue

Pepperell, Robert; Ruschkowski, Anja

2013 Art & Perception

doi:10.1163/22134913-00002001

Perona, Pietro

2013 Art & Perception

doi:10.1163/22134913-00002005

Realistic pictures, whether paintings, photographs or rendered images of models, are traditionally obtained using classical perspective projection. Here I focus on pictures of people and discuss evidence suggesting that, for best results, full-length realistic-looking portraits should be produced...

Pleasures of Ambiguity: the Case of Piranesi’s Carceri

Wagemans, Johan; Koenderink, Jan; van Doorn, Andrea

2013 Art & Perception

doi:10.1163/22134913-00002003

Are pictorial spaces evoked by intentionally ambiguous pictures internally coherent? If so, then we expect these to be idiosyncratic. We addressed this issue empirically. Three sheets from the second edition of Piranesi’s Carceri d’Inventione were selected for the experiment. These were compared...
