In On the Ideal in the Pictorial Arts, Quatremèegrave;re de Quincy offers one of the most detailed treatments of mimesis since Aristotle. He defends the practice of ideal imitation against the late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century predilection for real imitation and highlights the imagination’s contribution to ideal imitation.
