Example text
Always, if we see it at all (and do not, say, see it as something else)? —The question is whether yet another concept, related to this one, is also of importance to us: that, namely, of a seeing-as which only takes place while I am actually concerning myself with the picture as the object depicted. ” 14 Aesthetic Analogies 33 In answer to the last question he remarks: I might say: a picture does not always live for me while I am seeing it. ” It need not always do so, whenever my glance lights on it.
The woman she sees is smiling, or she is beguiling. But then, why is she looking at these pictures? And to whom do we suppose she is saying what she says? Wittgenstein’s examples of the rectangular solid, picture-rabbit, and duck-rabbit are at first presented as a psychologist might present them: “I am shown a picture-rabbit and asked what it is” (PI 195h). Little is said about the fact that in saying “I see this as …,” I am speaking to someone, that in the ordinary circumstances in which I might say this, I enter my remark into my life with others.
Xi of these and similar examples of visual experience, Wittgenstein remains preoccupied with differences among our concepts of “seeing” (see PI 200a) and with philosophy’s difference from psychology. Yet questions about our capacity of “noticing [seeing] an aspect” – and topics of experience and of interpretation – are central concerns of aesthetics and criticism. Couldn’t Wittgenstein have such concerns in view as well? His pictorial examples – his figures of a rectangular solid, joined planes, or a triangle; his “picture objects,” such as his simple drawing of a smiling face; and the duck-rabbit – are not instances or examples of art, but sketched or schematized, as if deliberately to show their difference from art.
