Abstract

Regarding drawing perspective, Spanish tradition has hidden singularitiesthat greatly distinguish it from other European traditions. Spanish tradition, how-ever, simultaneously nurtures ideas from these traditions, such as those of Italy andFrance, creating multiple variations and novelties. This study presents a briefjourney through the lesser-known exempla, which are lesser studied in the scientificcommunity. The study focuses on the ‘angular perspective’ by architect Herna ́nRuiz the Younger (el Joven), the innovative construction of figures in perspective bythe carpenter Antonio de Torreblanca and the singular contributions to the anony-mous manuscriptArtes Exc ̧elenc ̧ias dela Perspectiba.All three studies are similar inthat they feature novel and heterodox premises within the general theory
