Italian term or phrase: punto d'arrivo
Come accertato dallo schema ricostruttivo dell’impianto prospettico elaborato da Carter e Wittkower, (fig. 6) l’insieme spaziale è stato accuratamente calcolato fin nella posizione dei particolari e il punto di fuga risulta centrico e collocato verso il basso, fra lo stipite destro della porta posta dietro la figura di Cristo e l’infilata delle colonne che delimitano il loggiato sulla destra.2_ Di conseguenza alcuni studiosi hanno voluto vedere in questa opera un ***punto di arrivo*** nell’elaborazione prospettica di Piero, quasi una dimostrazione pratica della riflessione teorica sul problema della resa spaziale, con conseguenti riflessi sia sulla datazione del dipinto che del De prospectiva pingendi.
