Seeing a photograph we are seeing a landscape. The image texture opens for us a sight of something, thus discovering and revealing a particular image of the world. There is always a certain type of illusion in the act of seeing a picture. We can see the world by ways of its possible images, and at the same time we can give meaning to what we see through what these possible images tell us about the world.
