Géometrie Descriptive
Géometrie Descriptive is an 1820 treatise on descriptive geometry by Gaspard Monge, edited by Barnabé Brisson and held by Heidelberg University Library, aimed at students of technical drawing and engineering. The plates are dense engraved projection diagrams of cylinders, cones and curved surfaces drawn in orthogonal views with construction lines, dashed hidden edges and lettered points, offering a designer clear models of perspective projection and intersecting solids.
