Is The Golden Ratio At Work?
Da Vinci was obsessed with a principle known as the ‘Golden Ratio’. This was a mathematical proposition that set out the most pleasing proportions of objects or features to the human eye. First found in nature, Renaissance artists then began using this ratio to give their pictures added beauty. It has been found that this ratio may be at work in the Mona Lisa which is why it has such an allure and sense of elegance to the human eye.
