Weergave van pijl op retina 1679

"Weergave van pijl op retina" (Representation of an Arrow on the Retina) is a 1679 etching by Sébastien Leclerc I, a French artist known for his scientific illustrations. The artwork depicts a diagram illustrating the process of vision, showing how light rays from an arrow are refracted through the eye's lens and projected onto the retina. This meticulous and detailed engraving demonstrates the scientific understanding of optics during the 17th century. The work is a valuable document in the history of science and art.
