43. LINEAR PERSPECTIVE
• A system of rendering the appearance of three
dimensions on a two-dimensional plane by
making objects appear smaller as they recede
and by making parallel lines converge in the
distance at a vanishing point on a horizon line.
44. VANISHING POINT
• Where converging lines drawn in linear
perspective seem to disappear into a distant
dot on the horizon line.
45. ORTHOGONAL LINES
• Lines or edges in a picture that lead the
viewer’s eyes to the vanishing points in an
illusional three-dimensional space.
92. FORESHORTENING
• Occurs when an object appears compressed
when seen from a particular viewpoint, and
the effect of perspective causes distortion.
93. ATMOSPHERIC (AERIAL) PERSPECTIVE
• The technique of representing dimensional
space by making objects close to the viewer
appear crisp and vibrant and making them
fuzzy and less intense in color and tone as thet
recede.

98. ISOMETRIC PERSPECTIVE
• A means of rendering three-dimensional
objects without reliance on vanishing points
or converging lines; scale of objects remains
the same regardless of the distance from the
foreground and background.
