…Technically, the Middle Ages knew about perspective (the theory of ancient perspective had been introduced to Europe in the 12th century through the works of the 10th-century Arab scientist Ibn al-Haytham), but the medieval abstract worldview in which God was the absolute being did not require the objective depiction of the natural world.
