A 1615 German treatise on perspective by Lukas Brunn, printed in Nuremberg and Leipzig, teaching draftsmen how to construct perspective views of stage sets and objects on various planes. Its pictures are engraved plates of geometric construction diagrams with lettered points and orthogonal lines, alongside a few plates of rendered stepped and curved forms; a designer could take from them the logic of vanishing lines and receding planes for spatial layouts.
