Paolo Uccello, Perspective Study of Mazzocchio, c. 1450s From abstract-art.com: "The mazzocchio, a wooden or wicker headdress, was a common article of male attire in Florence in the second and third quarters of the fifteenth century. Painted representations of the mazzocchio are seen in many of Uccello’s paintings. By virtue of its form, which can be clearly determined in these paintings, its representation presented a constructional problem of special complexity, with which later perspective theorists also concerned themselves.“ -- source link
