Perspective: c'est à dire les très-renommé art du poinct oculaire d'une veue dedans ou travers regardante...
A perspective treatise by Hans Vredeman de Vries, published in 1605, presenting architectural perspective constructions for painters, draughtsmen and architects. The plates show arcaded courtyards, colonnades and vaulted galleries drawn in engraved line with receding tiled floors and ruled perspective grids, giving a designer a clear model for building depth through orthogonal lines, vanishing points and repeated arches.
