Abstract
In general, the intertwining of drawing, perspective, instruments, design, and science is still far from being fully understood. In particular, the way mathematical knowledge of solids relates to art is a multidisciplinary endeavour that is hard to grasp without simplifying matters in some way. In his new book titled The Polyhedrists: Art and Geometry in the Long Sixteenth Century, Noam Andrews aims to detail the history of Platonic solids in different domains.
