Equidistant intervals in art. (a) Fragment of “The Music Lesson”, painted by Johannes Vermeer. (b) Fragment of “The Last Supper”, painted by Leonardo da Vinci. (c) Fragment of a plate engraved by Hans Vredeman de Vries. (d) Fragment of “The Interior of Henry VII's Chapel in Westminster Abbey”, painted by Canaletto. Added converging white lines meet at vanishing points in the paintings. Added parallel white lines indicate equidistant intervals according to the artists. Cyan dots mark equidistant intervals in physical space. Magenta dots indicate equidistant intervals in visual space, and yellow dots are equidistant in the picture. Distances of the vanishing points in visual space are given in Tables 1 and 2.
