摘要
We have analyzed and reconstructed the refractive anamorphic viewer described by J.-F. Niceron in his book, La Perspective Curieuse, which created a sensation in 17th century intellectual circles. We deduced the morphology of one of the polyprisms that he described, and constructed the refractive element in the apparatus. The optical elements of the apparatus were simulated using a ray tracing program to determine the parameters of the viewer so that a working replica could be constructed. The analysis is a good example of the use of mathematics and physics in a problem of art history.
