Who created realistic drawing?

Accepted Answer

It's really not possible to say who created realistic drawing — drawing techniques developed slowly over centuries. Work that involves illusionistic techniques of realism dates back to the classical world, such as the deceptive trompe l’oeil used since ancient Greece. Italian and Northern Renaissance artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Albrecht Dürer were interested in drawing subjects as realistically as possible, and 17th-century Dutch artists pushed realistic art further. Realism emerged in France in the 19th century as an art movement through artists like Honoré Daumier, who sought to depict and comment upon everyday life through their work.
