Perspectiva pes picturae is a 1719 German manual on perspective drawing by Johann Jacob Schübler, published in Nürnberg by the art dealer Johann Christoph Weigel for students of draughtsmanship. Its engraved plates show architectural elements such as pilasters, pediments, niches and cornices drawn in plan, elevation and perspective with construction lines visible. A designer could take from them the clean geometric method of building a classical façade from ground plan to projected view.
