Zusammenfassung:For two centuries, the term "visuality" has relied on Thomas Carlyle's definition of "being visual or visible to the mind." However, the word has been expanded by art critics and historians, who consider it as a "visual perspective" by which artifacts or pictures are visible to viewers, creating a visual experience. This essay further examines the creation and definition of the term and its association with art scholarship.
