Rembrandt was stereoblind:

Stereopsis is an important cue for depth perception, yet it can be a hindrance to an artist trying to depict a three-dimensional scene on a flat surface. Art teachers often instruct students to close one eye in order to flatten what they see. Therefore, stereoblindness might not be a handicap — and might even be an asset — for some artists.

Good to see I’m not the only one thinking so — and there’s no reason the same wouldn’t apply to photographers. But then, maybe I should actually try to start painting?
