 By the method called projection, the rules of perspective are applied to the delineation of objects upon the surface according to four principal modes. In the method of projection called orthographic, the eye is supposed to be at an infinite distance...  Bergen's Marine Engineer - Page 2by William Culley Bergen - 1880Full view - About this book
