The sketch of the Vitruvian Man depicts the perfect male form as seen by Vitruvius. Vitruvius aimed to discover the mathematical proportions of the human body and use the findings to improve the function and appearance of architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn more modern times, the architect Le Corbusier devised an anthropometric scale of proportions, a further development from Vitruvius' work.
