Mantegna (1431-1506)
Mantegna used linear perspective in his paintings, architecture looms very high and appears very authentic.
This strict use of scientific perspective was so exact that it was possible to create a model of the architecture using measurements derived from the painting.
This is "The Agony in the Garden" from 1455.
