Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks about Brunelleschi’s use of diagrams like the one shown, in terms of what artists should determine using such diagrams.
Option 1: 'Determine the height of the painting or fresco' — This is not the primary goal of Brunelleschi’s diagrams. While overall composition and proportional relationships matter, these diagrams are not specifically about fixing the vertical size of the artwork; they focus more on geometric relationships and perspective construction.
Option 2: 'Determine the measurement of braccia' — Braccia is an ancient unit of measure, but Brunelleschi’s diagrams are not introduced to standardize a physical unit like braccia in this context. The diagrams serve a broader architectural-painting design purpose rather than teaching a particular unit of length.
Option 3: 'Determine the spacing of transversals' — Correct. The diagrams are used to establish how lines (transversals) are spaced to create consistent perspective grids and optical relationships. By setting the spacing of these transversals, artists can align sightlines and ensure correct vanishing points and proportional relationships across the composition. This aligns with Brunelleschi’s emphasis on geometric construction to achieve accurate perspective.
In summary, the core instructional aim of such diagrams is to organize and regulate how transverse lines (transversals) are spaced to guide perspective, rather than fix painting height or a specific unit of measurement. The incorrect options misinterpret the diagram’s purpose or neglect the central role of perspective construction in Brunelleschi’s method.
