Abstract: | We have studied the optical historical light curves of two Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs): OJ287 and 3C345. We find a linear
dependence between the magnitude and the logarithm of the length of the time the objects stay below this magnitude. The relation
may originate from a fractal structure of the light curve.
