More of the Gold

Herbert Matter

Delivering on my promise from yesterday, I’m adding to the golden section post. I’ve mutilated several posters by Swiss masters to represent its usage. The mathematical description is as follows: the Golden Section is also known as the Golden Mean, Golden Ratio and Divine Proportion.  It is a ratio or proportion defined by the number Phi (1.618033988749895… ). It is best explained on Designorama or the enclosed Donald in Mathimagicland. I’m not lazy, it’s just complicated.
