Yes, I know the rumours about his use of a camera obscura. In my
opinion, this is not true.
But anyway, if he has used such advanced technologies and optical
utilities, he could be considered as the first *raytracer* ever. And
from my point of view, this would not weaken his reputation as a
great artist in any way.
