The paper explores the intellectual relationship between Ernst Gombrich and Aby Warburg, focusing on their differing approaches to art history, perception, and the cognitive psychology of visual representation. It critiques the misinterpretations of Gombrich's works, particularly regarding the role of illusion in art, and emphasizes his contributions to the contemporary understanding of art historical methodologies.

The narrative includes personal reflections and highlights Gombrich's rigorous academic stance against prevailing trends in art interpretation during his time. The pdf of the article will be made available in March , one year after the book launch. I do not think I have ever enjoyed a book on art so much, one felt so convinced, so much illuminated, by an argument of this kind.

I really believe that this is the most important and the most permanently valid contribution to the understanding of the visual arts that has been made in our century. My only complaint against you is that, in certain passages, you say things that I should have liked to have said myself and I am not the less inclined to utter an impatient "peveat" because you say them so well.

I can forgive your superior scholarship easily enough, for I am not an art historian; but the grace and lucidity of your English is intolerable and most unfair.
