Check out Albrecht Dürer

Hard to say who "discovered" it, but Durer is sure early, and he clearly understood mathematics, too.

Neat example of his perspective work here

What is non perspective drawings?

A Perspective Image is an image that looks realistic and tends to be almost 3D, there is at least one vanishing point. Think of an image of a road. Notice how the road is large where we stand but gradually gets smaller until we can't see it at all? That's where the vanishing point is. A Non-perspective image is an image that lacks in a vanishing point and is almost flat.


What work from the Italian Renaissance uses a vanishing point to create linear perspective?

The left painting only


What is formal perspective in art?

The perspective in art is the viewpoint of the artist. The formal perspective is the perspective that the artist wants the audience to have when looking at the piece.


What is Optical Perspective?

Optical perspective refers to the technique used in art and visual representation to create the illusion of depth and three-dimensionality on a two-dimensional surface. By manipulating elements such as size, overlap, and color gradients, artists can simulate how objects appear smaller and less detailed as they recede into the distance. This approach is grounded in the principles of linear perspective, which employs vanishing points and horizon lines to guide the viewer's eye. Ultimately, optical perspective enhances the realism and spatial dynamics of an artwork.


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.
