Abstract
This work analyses the presence of graphic examples and geometric orientation models of certain landscape compositions or natural processes, arranged in artistic literature as a repertoire of practical cases. Among them, we specify those where the notion of symmetry had special im- portance for said transmission, understanding it under a historical and aesthetic meaning where it has been linked to the application of harmonic theories in art. In an etymological sense, we under- stand in this text the notion of symmetry as a correspondence between parts of a whole from the his- torical conception established by Vitruvius, according to which it is born from the proportion to be the cause of a final composition (compositio). Historical-artistic literature allows a graphic and conceptual itinerary to be established through images that end up forming an iconographic corpus of graphic examples that place the landscape image under precepts related to geometric rationali- zation or use these precepts to propose an intuitive alternative related to with direct observation of nature.
