The plant world has from time immenselyinfluence on the development of our civilization. And often it was expressed not only in the fact that the herbs were used as medicines. So, the beauty of plants always gave inspiration to artists and sculptors.
In most of the architectural ensembles of St. Petersburg, the canons that were adopted in Ancient Greece are clearly traced.
And a characteristic feature of these plantornaments is that they do not show any deep meaning, but suggest the overall emotional coloring that the architect has invested in his creation.
So, a flower is not only the beauty of plants inhabitual for us to understand, but tenderness, touching, oak shows willpower and inflexibility, and the image of a branch with kidneys emphasizes the refinement of the ensemble and demonstrates the revival of life from the cold of winter.
However, the Greeks mentioned by us were much largerpragmatists, rather than the builders of Peter. Do you know anything about the so-called golden section? If not, then you probably skipped geometry lessons at school.
To understand how the beauty of plants is interrelatedand a mathematical concept, a little talk about psychology. It is known that some objects and forms are subconsciously attracting us, while others turn away at first sight.
There is no adequate explanation for this phenomenon until now, but even ancient Greek mathematicians have derived one strict pattern.
In simple terms (how muchperhaps), then this division of a segment into two parts, which are not equal to each other. And the whole segment so refers to the largest part, as it relates to the smaller.
It is the beauty of plants (photos of which areconfirm) gave rise to the unique Parthenon, which until now continues to be considered the highest manifestation of aesthetics, functionality and perfection in all its splendor.
In 1983, Bulgarian native mathematician TsvetanTsekov-Pencil published calculations showing the presence of a second section shape, which flowed from the first. In order not to bore you with details, let's say that the ratio in this case is 44: 56.
It is these numbers that biologists and mathematicians have discoveredexploring the ratio of the sizes of many flowers, trees and other natural objects. It is this very same Muse that gave inspiration to the greatest creators in the history of mankind.
Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rubens - all of themknew very well that the amazing beauty of plants (photos of which are in our article) is not a banal literary stamp. It really exists, as if Nature is that brilliant Creator who created man in his own image and likeness.
