“René Descartes’ Model of Sensory Perception and the Pineal Gland”
This classic illustration from Descartes’ “Treatise of Man” (1664) attempts to explain how visual perception and physical movement occur via the nervous system.

The dotted lines depict how stimuli trigger motor responses, such as raising a finger.
