  7. 25. Omvänt perspektiv i bildkonst och kontrovers : En kritisk begreppshistoria från det gångna seklet

    Sammanfattning : Throughout the past century the concept of an inverted perspective, understood as a stylistic trait in Late Classical, Byzantine and Medieval art, has been at the centre of a controversy.
