This paper tries to analyse basic problems of art-production in renaissance and early modern art (particularly in painting, but implicitly also in sculpture and architecture) from a philosophical point of view. The fundamental questions are: how do distances and directions interact? What role plays, if one turns away from mathematical-geometrical acts of measuring, the position - locally and temporally - of an individual? Is there any influence of the philosophical problem of singularity on art? One possible and most interesting horizon where answers could be given and found, is the horizon of perspectivity.
