To be more specific, when do you stop seeing "almost correct" perspective? When do paintings hold together flawlessly? When does the light source seem absolutely perfect? When is the design uncluttered with unneeded detail? When is the depth of field convincing?
Well, now this is a sort of different question when you narrow it down like that. With that tight a criteria, you'd have to pick the 19th Century and Bouguereau...end of story. That's in my oh so humble opinion. Though I'm sure you could find a ready army across the country to disagree with me. I was just looking at one yesterday, and it would fit your description very well indeed.

Oh boy... I'm getting the secret prize now Peter!
