A drawing in linear perspective.
Any system used to create the illusion of three-dimensional images and/or spatial relationships on a two-dimensional surface.
a drawing projection that portrays the convergence of parallel lines in the visual field and the apparent reduction in size of distant objects; the closest drawing projection to what the human eye experiences
Balancing change on a pyramid structure between broad-medium-narrow ranges of perception that are relative to time-motion-space, like views from the peak-slope-base of a mountain.

The angle or level from which the photographer takes the photograph; the camera and photographer's "point of view".
Azimuthal projections are constructed from one of three perspectives where for each it is as if a light source were shown upon the globe and the arcs of the parallels and meridians were projected onto the flat, tangent, straight line surface. The three projection perspectives are Gnomonic, Orthographic, and Stereographic.
A digital effect that cause rectangles in a displayed picture to appear as trapezoids, adding virtual depth to the picture.
a system of representing three-dimensional objects in a two-dimensional picture plane so as to appear to have correct spatial relationships
The science dealing with the apparent diminution in the size of objects as they recede from the spectator. Perspective projection is the geometric method of producing this effect in a line drawing, given the dimensions of the object and the position of the observer. Dimensions cannot be "taken off" perspective drawings because the various parts are at constantly varying scales (also known as foreshadowing).
The soundstage depth information that is conveyed by layering.
A system for creating the illusion of 3-D depth in 2-D images. Three types of visual perspective are: linear perspective--based on the illusion that parallel lines converge as their distance from the observer increases diminishing perspective--based on the apparent reduction in the size of objects as their distance from the observer increases atmospheric perspective--based on the apparent reduction of detail and colour intensity of objects as their distance from the observer increases
a technique of representing a three-dimensional object or space on a two-dimensional surface. See also Atmospheric perspective, Linear perspective and Simultaneous perspective.
The effect of distance upon the appearance of three-dimensional objects, by means of which the eye recognized them as being at a more or less measurable distance. Also defined as the appearance of things relative to one another as determined by their (the object's) distance from the viewer.
The technique of representing three-dimensional objects and depth relationships on a two-dimensional surface.
The rendition of apparent space in a flat photograph, i.e., how far the foreground and background appear to be separated from each other; determined by only one factor: the camera-to-subject distance; if objects appear in their normal size relations, the perspective is considered "normal"; if the foreground objects are much larger than the ones in the background, the perspective is considered "exaggerated"; when there is little difference in size between foreground and background, we say the perspective looks "compressed."
The technique artists use to make three-dimensional objects look real on a two-dimensional surface. Perspective helps to create a sense of depth and receding space.
The depiction of three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface or picture plane in order to produce the same or similar impression of distance and relative size as is received by the human eye when observing the natural world. Linear perspective is the most consistent system for portraying an illusion of the three-dimensional world on a two-dimensional surface. Linear perspective is based on the fact that parallel lines or edges appear to converge and objects appear to grow smaller as they recede into the distance. Atmospheric perspective (aerial perspective_ creates the illusion of distance by reducing colour saturation, value contrast, and detail in order to imply the hazy effect of atmosphere on distant objects.

The technique artists use to project an illusion of the three-dimensional world onto a two-dimensional surface.
Technique of representing three-dimensional space on a flat or relief surface giving a sense of depth. Linear perspective foreshortens objects as they recede into the distance with lines converging to a vanishing point. Aerial perspective is based on contrasts of colour and shade, which are stronger in the foreground and fainter in the distance.

The relationship between how far the foreground and the background appear to be separated from each other, or the apparent space visible in a flat photograph.
a way of thinking about or considering something; or a set of assumptions from which an object can be viewed. Knowing which perspective is assumed is important because the same question can have different answers if different perspectives are assumed. Kant himself does not use this word, but he uses a number of other expressions (such as standpoint, way of thinking, employment of understanding, etc.) in precisely this way. The main Critical perspectives are the transcendental, empirical, logical and hypothetical.

The representation of three-dimensional objects on a flat surface
A technique for making three-dimensional objects look more natural when represented on paper or screen, by for example making distant objecls smaller than closer ones, and parallel lines converge in the distanve.
The means for representing deep space or three-dimensional forms on a flat surface. Atmospheric or aerial perspective achieves the illusion of depth through diminishing contrasts and increasingly blurred forms as distances increase. Linear or mathematical perspective relies upon real or implied diagonals that converge on a vanishing point or points, frequently at a horizon line.

a point of view or standpoint from which historical events, problems and issues can be analysed, eg a gender perspective (either masculine or feminine) on the past
A system for creating an illusion of depth or three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface. Usually refers to linear perspective, which is based on the fact that parallel lines or edges appear to converge and objects appear smaller as the distance between them and the viewer increases. Atmospheric perspective (aerial perspective) creates the illusion of distance by reducing color saturation, value contrast, and detail in order to imply the hazy effect of atmosphere between the viewer and distant objects. Isometric perspective is not a visual or optical interpretation, but a mechanical means to show space and volume in rectangular forms. Parallel lines remain parallel; there is no convergence.

The rules that determine the relative size of objects on a flat page to give the impression of 3D distance.
A way of representing three-dimensional objects from a certain point of view on a two-dimensional surface. Linear perspective uses lines going to a vanishing point to set depth. Aerial perspective uses the effect of spatial depth by using light and shading of color.
A position from which something is considered or evaluated; standpoint. See Point of view
The representation of objects on a flat surface in accordance with their distance and position in space. Aerial perspective, or atmosphere, is achieved through a gradation of colours, whereas linear perspective is the result of lines and the alignment of objects and themes in relation to one another.

A method of drawing that allows an artist to accurately represent a 3-dimensional object on a 2-dimensional surface.
A drawing or painting technique in which objects represented seem to have distance and depth.
Perspective is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional scene. In photography this can be achieved by viewing 3-D objects from an angle rather than head-on. A photograph is also given perspective if there are objects in the foreground, middle distance and background, giving the whole scene “depth”.

A two-dimensional drawing, often constructed mathematically, that represents a three-dimensional view where objects are drawn progressively smaller the more distant they are, similar to the image created on a photograph of a three-dimensional view. A key characteristic of a perspective is that lines that are parallel to each other in the three-dimensional view being represented will converge towards a vanishing point as they become more distant from the viewer. See also Parallel Projection.
a sense and amount of three dimensions in the two-dimensional image. The standard wideangle end of a zoom lens provides a similar perspective and sense of speed of a moving subject as that of normal eyesight.

Perspective (from Latin perspicere, to see clearly) in the graphic arts, such as drawing, is an approximate representation, on a flat surface (such as paper), of an as it is perceived by the eye.
Perspective, in the context of vision and visual perception, is the way in which objects appear to the eye based on their spatial attributes, or their dimensions and the position of the eye relative to the objects.
Perspective in theory of cognition is the choice of a context or a reference (or the result of this choice) from which to sense, categorize, measure or codify experience, cohesively forming a coherent belief, typically for comparing with another. One may further recognize a number of subtly distinctive meanings, close to those of paradigm, point of view, reality tunnel, umwelt, or weltanschauung.
