Reviews the article, "Der linear-perspectivische Factor in der Erscheinung des Himmelsgewölbes" by George M. Stratton (Zeitschrift f. Psych, u. Physiol. der Sinnesorgane, XXVIII, 42-45). In opposition to von Zehender's contention that the flattened appearance of the clouded sky is explained by the physical facts of the eccentricity of the observer's position within the cloud sphere, the author holds that the most important factor in the explanation is visual, and depends on the general laws of perspective.
