To establish credible linear perspective, one must employ a horizon line and vanishing point(s). Fillipo Brunelleschi is the man who discovered/invented this system and its concepts.
The word line in art means a line is a basic element of art, referring to a continuous mark, made on a surface, by a moving point.
Art during the renaissance was innovative in its design and controversial in its subjects. The new art was both realistic and beautiful. The city of Florence became the center of one of the most concentrated and productive periods in the history of the arts. The most significant innovation in painting during the Renaissance was the use of linear perspective. Early Renaissance artists developed a system for creating depth using the horizon line and the vanishing point.
A form of perspective in which parallel lines seem to meet at one or more vanishing points
Elizabeth Ockwell is a famous artist who mainly draws in perspective her style is: she draws in pen which most artists never do, in her perspective work she adds more colour to the area in which the vanishing point instead of around the front which is the close up part and where the colour is normally stronger. The human figure rarely appears in her watercolors and etchings of Paris, Rome, Venice and Vienna. She walks through famous rooms and town squares until she feels that she has to 'go no further for the perfect view'.
orthogonal line
The answer is meridian line
Establish a horizon line and a vanishing point
The vanishing point is the farthest point in the painting, where the sides of the line appears to be converging
vanishing point
That line is called the horizon. It is the apparent line that separates the Earth from the sky when viewed from a specific point, such as where the vanishing point sits in perspective drawings.
On the horizon line
Receding line is a line that goes back to the vanishing point(VP). -.-
Horizon line. :)
It can be any line whatsoever: in much art it is the line of the horizon.
The term for this is Vanishing Point.
The two vanishing points are placed apart on the same horizon line (horizontal eye line of viewer). The horizon is the first line to be drawn.
