%X Sa？etak In the paper, the author analyses and compares cube examples and drawings in Wittgenstein’s works, especially the cube from TLP (TLP 1974 5.5432) and the cube from PPF (ex PI II) (PPF 2009 116). There is no direct evidence that the PPF–cube is a reaction to the ‘grave mistake’ of the TLP–cube. Also, there is no evidence that the TLP–cube is a representation of the Necker’s cube (1832), although it resembles the Jastrow’s cube (1900). However, both cubes present important ideas of TLP and PPF (PI). Also, Wittgenstein writes that he ‘purposely chose’ the example of the cube in PI and PPF, perhaps to show one of the ‘grave mistakes’ of the TLP cube. By analysis of the Necker’s cube and comparison of drawings and accompanying text of the TLP cube and the PPF cube, the author tries to explicate some possible implicit pictorial aspects of Wittgenstein’s thought and their possible repercussions on the understanding of Wittgenstein’s philosophy and of the general nature philosophical thinking as partly pictorial
