However, the relationship of the town to the countryside is distinct; the city dominates the surrounding landscape, agricultural patterns decrease outwardly from the city. Another Renaissance work, Piero della Francesco’s painting “Ideal Town,” shows the city as a Renaissance individual thought it to be: ordered, arranged in space by linear perspective, defined from the human point of view. The surrounding landscape is absent, implying that it is unnecessary to the comprehension of urban order. As Cosgrove states, the city is landscape. Yeti t is a landscape without the integration of architectural abstractions, all forms assume an idealized shape or poise, while the linear perspective dictates urban order within a rational context.
