Perspective Drawing

Perspective Drawing involves both the application of geometric laws and artistic skill. It has immediately practical value for almost everyone who wishes to make a correct drawing of a house, of the interior of a room or of specific details of a staircase, for instance. Perspective constructions open up a distinct awareness and sense of observation. We all deal with perspective; every photograph is a perspective presentation.Contents: Perspective Divisions and Perspective Series (The Perspective Middle; Perspective Division in 4 and 8 parts; Perspective Trisection; Perspective Extrapolation; Perspective Series of Horizontal Lines; Perspective Views with Two Vanishing Points; Inside Perspectives; Construction of Staircase) Roof Construction in Perspective (Pointed Roofs; The Gable Roofs; The Mansard Roofs; The Combined Gables) The Construction of Shadows Perspective of Curves Perspective Views from Nature
