Le prospettiva architettoniche sono un ponte che collega l’arte alla scienza, e la scienza all’arte; e questo ponte l’ha costruito la Storia. Perché, poi, questo ponte lo abbia gettato la Storia, è presto detto: le prospettive di soggetti architettonici sono già ben presenti a Ercolano e Pompei, nonché a Roma, nelle case di Augusto e di Livia e possono dirci molto sulle conoscenze ottiche e geometriche degli antichi.
