Adolf Zeising (24 September 1810Шаблон:Spaced ndash27 April 1876) was a German psychologist, whose main interests were mathematics and philosophy.
Among his theories, Zeising claimed to have found the golden ratio expressed in the arrangement of branches along the stems of plants and of veins in leaves. He extended his research to the skeletons of animals and the branchings of their veins and nerves, to the proportions of chemical compounds and the geometry of crystals, even to the use of proportion in artistic endeavors. In these phenomena he saw the golden ratio operating as a universal law,[1]
Many of his studies were followed by Gustav Fechner[2] and Le Corbusier, who elaborated his studies of human proportion to develop the Modulor.[3]

- ↑ Шаблон:Cite book. Hermann Lotze, Geschichte der Aesthetik in Deutschland, 1868, discusses Zeising on pp. 306–309 and reports Fechner's critique in Archiv für zeichnende Künste, 1865, p. 100, that the golden ratio measurements of the Holbein and Sixtini Madonnas do not agree, whereby Fechner concluded that Raphael avoided rather than sought the golden ratio in painting. Lotze himself is sceptical, but he finds Fechner's experiments using surveys of viewers promising.
