Article Title：On painting and philosophy: Sir Henry Raeburn

Abstract：
This article considers the 18 century European Enlightenment as an example of the cross-fertilization between philosophy propounding rationalist-empirical approach, and arts. The example of Sir Henry Raeburn, a Scottish portraitist, is given to illustrate the influence of the concepts of perception developed by, Thomas Reid, the founder of the Scottish school of common sense philosophy, on the style of painting.
