1 Arts visuels & perception Pascal Mamassian CNRS & Université Paris 5 I believe it is only by considering these psychological aspects of image making and image reading that we may come closer to an understanding of the central problem of the history of art [...], that is, why representation should have a history; why it should have taken mankind so long to arrive at a plausible rendering of visual effects that create the illusion of life-likeness; and why artists such as John Constable, who strove to be true to his vision, still had to admit that no art is ever free of convention. Sir Ernst Gombrich (1960), p. 291
