Curves are either flattened or sharpened when they are foreshortened in perspective. The two kinds of foreshortening seem to be perceived differently. The author argues that in some respects we see the world flatter than it is, and that, for example, Cézanne’s and Mondrian’s figurative paintings reflect this fact
