Synopsis

This book presents foundational principles of linear perspective. It is an indispensable tool for architects or industrial artists wanting to make accurate representations of spatial designs, as well as artists wanting to refine their drawings of three-dimensional objects on two-dimensional surfaces. The author explains the positioning of the eye, the picture, and the object, and the relative sizes of those elements. The most elementary construction techniques are explored in depth. The author presents key principles in accessible language, illustrating them with pictorial examples that progress from simple to more complex constructions. These constructions serve as a steppingstone into the author’s more advanced exploration of the topic in a future volume. This book is a practical guide providing a structure and illustrative tools for traditional linear perspective drawing.
