Application de la perspective linéaire aux arts du dessin : ouvrage posthume de J.T. Thibault
Application de la perspective linéaire aux arts du dessin is a posthumous treatise on linear perspective by Jean Thomas Thibault, published in Paris in 1827 by Mesdames Thibault, Jules Renouard, Bance aîné and Carilian-Gœury for artists and drawing students. Its plates are engraved line views of buildings, gardens and fountains set out in perspective, with plan and elevation diagrams beside them, showing how receding forms and hexagonal grids are constructed; a designer can take from them clear systems for placing vanishing points and foreshortening architecture.
