refers to the way we distinguish an object (the figure) from its
background (the ground). This principle plays a crucial role in how
we interpret and understand visual information.

6. Figure-ground relationships are essential in shaping how we
perceive images, allowing us to focus on the main subject
while distinguishing it from the background. This relationship
creates depth and helps establish a visual hierarchy in art.
IMPORTANCE IN VISUAL PERCEPTION

7. The concept of figure-ground can be traced back to
classical and Renaissance art, where artists began
to explore the relationship between the subject and
its background. These early explorations laid the
groundwork for later developments in art.
