Raphael, The School of Athens, 1510-1511
2 MAIN TYPES OF PERSPECTIVEEmpirical Perspective
relies on observation, not a set of rules
Uses angles, intersection points, plumb lines, and visual measurement (1:1 Ratio) (what we used for
the still life drawings)
Linear Perspective
Uses a scientific method as a set of rules to draw forms in a realistic 3D way on a 2D surface (your paper)
Illustrations of the picture plane or your 2D piece of paper
Linear Perspective is attributed to Filippo Brunelleschi, an Italian Early Renaissance artist.
The use of Perspective began c. 1450 CE
Artists began to see the picture plane as a transparent window through which the observer looks to see the constructed pictorial world. “rationalization of sight”
Look “through” a picture in to the painted “world”
Trompe l’oeil = “trick of the eye”the eye is tricked into believing that a painting
is real, how realistic something looks
ONE POINT PERSPECTIVE Used to draw and create forms with planes
that are parallel to the picture plane and viewer
The front plane of the object is closest to you
TWO POINT PERSPECTIVE Used to draw and create forms without
planes parallel to the picture plane and viewerThe edge is the closest to you

DEVELOPMENT OF PERSPECTIVE
EARLY RENAISSANCE C. 1450 CE
Before (Gothic): After (Renaissance):
Homework:Find two pictures that show 1&2 point perspective. Tape it to a larger sheet of paper & using a ruler locate the Horizon Line, Vanishing Points, and at least 12 lines going to the vanishing points.
