• Resumen

  • Because so little has been written about Soutin's methods of spatial representation one gets the impression that he was completely ignorant of the principles of perspective. However biographical evidence as well as the paintings themselves show that this was not the case. Although he was familiar with the rules of conventional perspective he developed an individualistic mode of pictorial representation which being based on the empathetic experience of reality rather than on its visual perception may be defined as "Haptic Perspective".
