notes for ways of seeing chapter 1

a image became how X had seen Y.this consciouness has existed since the beginning of renaissance.
mystification --privileged minority invent history in the interest of protecting the image of ruling classes. Their historical image can be justified.
composition
"cubists--the visible was no longer what confronted the single eye, but the totality of possible views taken from points all round the object( or person) being depicted."
