Studies on Optics and PerspectiveLeonardo da Vinci
These manuscript pages (c. 1508) show dense mirror writing (backward script) with diagrams of pyramidal light rays, intersecting lines, and shaded solids. Leonardo analyzes how light enters the eye and how perspective organizes space on a flat surface. The combination of text and geometry demonstrates his aim to turn vision into a measurable science.
