Perspective is the rein and rudder of painting.

Summary

This quote asserts that perspective is a crucial element in the art of painting. Similar to a rein and rudder guiding a horse or ship, perspective provides direction and control over the artwork. It suggests that the artist's understanding and skill in capturing the proper perspective are essential for creating a visually compelling and accurate depiction. Perspective grants the artist the ability to manipulate depth, spatial relationships, and proportions within the artwork, shaping the overall composition and conveying the intended message or effect to the viewers.
