It can be found in Kant's analysis of beauty,asthetics, taste and teleology. I didnt bring that text to the coffe shop this evening so I'll have to give you the reference later.
I included the painter only because the the natural purpose of bioreproduction is NOT something I have ever seen a painter capture, though we try to talk about this here all the time. I had just noticed this "fact" in Kant this afternoon and it gave me pause to wonder if Lysenko might not have read this passage also when it comes to grafting trees. Dobshanky might have read it too. Any way the passage really showed that modern evolutionists somehow get blind chance as reality IF the deny the transcendental use of vanity. That seems to be the mistake in concluding to mental illness when (before) the practical reason had ALREADY informed the reason purely but because of a posteriori vanity than no one had yet found a chance mechanism to reach as such ,the understanding of an intelligent nouemon. None of this complex thought is necessary for a painter to systematically put colors in places say opposite to the physiological relation of colors (purpleyellow) in such a way to cause the viewer to mis"see" the canvas.
