NOTE

PERSPECTIVE

In cultural and creative art, perspective refers to the representation of three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface in a way that accurately conveys depth and distance. It is a fundamental technique used to create the illusion of depth and spatial relationships within a work of art, allowing viewers to perceive objects as they would in real life.

Attributes of Linear Perspective

Linear perspective is a system of creating the illusion of depth on a flat surface by using lines and vanishing points. Its key attributes include:

  1. Vanishing Point: A point on the horizon where parallel lines appear to converge and disappear from view. Multiple vanishing points may be used depending on the composition.
  2. Convergence: Parallel lines in the scene, such as the edges of buildings or roads, appear to converge towards the vanishing point(s) in the distance.
  3. Foreshortening: Objects appear shorter or compressed as they recede into the distance, creating a sense of depth and spatial recession.
  4. Size Diminution: Objects appear smaller as they move farther away from the viewer, following the principle of diminishing size in relation to distance.

Types of Perspective

  1. One-Point Perspective: In one-point perspective, all parallel lines converge to a single vanishing point on the horizon line. This technique is commonly used for scenes viewed directly from the front or back, such as a hallway or railway track.
  2. Two-Point Perspective: Two-point perspective involves two vanishing points on the horizon line, typically used for scenes viewed at an angle or in three-quarter view. It is often used for buildings or objects with angular sides.
  3. Three-Point Perspective: Three-point perspective incorporates three vanishing points, including one above or below the horizon line. This technique is used for compositions where objects are viewed from above or below, such as looking up at a skyscraper or down into a canyon.
