Ernst Mach, whose name you know from the Mach numbers (Mach 1, Mach 5 etc) was also a philosopher and artist who was obsessed with sensation, the below is a self portrait of him called "View from the left eye."
A pen and ink drawing showing a man's body lying down. In the distance there is a room with wooden panks and a window beyond which is a landscape. In the foreground you can see how Mach also drew a distorted curve of his nose, mustache, and brow ridge, which our minds typically block from us actually sensing.
