Article Abstract:

Tempers arose when a painter David Hockney and optics scientist Charles Falco joined forces to argue that major European masters from the Renaissance to the nineteenth century had used lenses or mirrors to project images on to their canvases to capture certain details of expression. David Stork, optics expert and chief scientist at Ricoh Innovations in Menlo Park, was the most vociferous and frequent critic, arguing that the masters did not cheat.
