a. mathematics and linear perspective

Ghiberti used careful geometry and mathematical proportion to organize the space in the gilded bronze reliefs and employed linear perspective techniques to create convincing depth. Sfumato (a smoky tonal blending) was not used, and while modeling and shadow in the relief create some light/dark effect, the defining features are the mathematical design and linear perspective.
