Meer over het boek

Hermann von Helmholtz (1821-1894) is recognized as the last all-round natural scientist, adept at surveying contemporary scientific branches and contributing significantly to many of them. He aspired to uncover the physiological laws that influence both science and art, shaping our understanding of the world. Although he never formally addressed the laws of artistic creation, this vision permeates his numerous publications, particularly in his public lectures aimed at a broad audience. His work remains historically significant while also resonating with current explorations of the relationship between science and art, prompting readers to reconsider their connections in today's culture.
