The Golden Ratio, occasionally Divine Division, describes a mathematical relationship that has been used in art for centuries and is still used today in all artistic disciplines. Specifically, the golden section names a natural relationship, as any route can be divided into two sections and is perceived by most people as aesthetically pleasing. The ratio is an irrational number and thus has infinitely many decimal places, abbreviated to share a distance in the ratio of 61.8% to 38.2%. This division is already to discover in elementary areas of nature, for example in the proportioning of the human face or in the construction of trees and other plants. Architecture, too, has adopted this principle many times before and applies the golden section in the form of house fronts with doors and windows, pillar constructions and other architectural elements. In fine art, the division of areas of a painting is very often based on the golden section, which can at least be traced back to Leonardo da Vinci in the artistic environment. Since the design of flower arrangements and wreaths can also be considered a three-dimensional composition, the golden section is also used in this creative field.
