Abstract

The paper portrays some aspects that show how nature is implemented into the graphic values domain by confronting the physical image of the artistic subject. The article presents some rules that have marked over time the representation of the human body in sculpture, based on the subtle game of proportion. There are also presented brief studies of works of art based on an analysis of framing surfaces the sides of which are in the golden section ratio.
