In the 60s of the last century, L.N. Mogilev at the Irkutsk State University launched a multifaceted large-scale work on the study of the spatial vision mechanisms which corresponded to the latest achievements and trends of the then science of vision both in terms of the methodological level and the choice of theoretical and experimental problems .Unfortunately, this work was carried out largely in isolation and was poorly presented at international conferences. As a result, many important findings of these studies and even L.N. Mogilev’s monograph “Mechanisms of Spatial Vision” (1982) remained unknown to most members of the scientific community involved in the development of methods for studying and theories of visual spatial perception, and were not included even in sufficiently detailed and complete foreign review editions. Perhaps this is also due to the fact that L.N. Mogilev himself in his publications paid insufficient attention to the work of his foreign predecessors and colleagues who carried out similar studies simultaneously with him. In connection with the anniversary date – the 100th anniversary of the birth of L.N. Mogilev – it seems important and useful to recall the most interesting works of this remarkable scientist and analyze them in context with similar earlier and parallel studies. In this article, an attempt is made to discuss the works of L.N. Mogilev in the field of spatial vision, highlighting the areas of research that most closely intersect with the studies and works of foreign authors who have received wide popularity and recognition.

Key words: L.N. Mogilev, mechanisms of spatial vision, stereokinetic effect, autostereogram, binarimeter
