The art of theater has also contributed to the production of real thought by offering different perspectives to people. This research focuses on the questioning of the existence of the theatrical concept, which is based on the roots of the art of theater, in the painting. In the study, the contribution of the ancient scenography, which was created with the power of visual creation, to the theatrical forehead of the theater stage was examined. Then, the structure of the theatrical concept, which has different meanings between disciplines for a long time, and the questioning of the theatrical perception, which the thinkers on the concept discussed separately from each other, were observed. In the Renaissance, Baroque, Neoclassicism and Romanticism periods, which have an important place in painting, theatrical readings based on performing arts were performed separately on the paintings.
