Sinopsis

Excerpt from Proportion, or the Geometric Principle of Beauty, Analysed

To attempt to reduce to fixed principles what is called Taste in the combination of forms, is a difficult and perhaps a presumptuous task, although such principles are universally felt to exist. Yet it is not a hopeless labour, as it seems almost certain that the Grecians, at the period of their highest refinement, had a positive geometric principle of beauty systematically developed and applied in all their works.
