Tim's Vermeer, art, science

Telluride Film Festival: 'Tim's Vermeer' explores art, science - latimes.com: "Compared with his contemporaries, Vermeer was able to depict the nuanced details of photorealism far better than his painter peers at the time, nearly 200 years before the invention of photography. Some academics and artists — including David Hockney — are convinced Vermeer didn’t just paint by sight. “There is no explanation for the paintings without optics,” the British painter says of Vermeer’s work. Jenison’s idea is mathematically simple: that by using a fixed, dentist-sized mirror that is both reflecting and obscuring a reflection of an image, he can match on a blank slate the exact colors and boundaries of the reflected image."
