Linear or point-projection '''perspective''' ({{etymology|la|{{wiktlat|perspicere}}|to see through}}) is one of two types of [[3D projection|graphical projection]] perspective in the [[graphic arts]]; the other is [[parallel projection]].{{fact|date=May 2022}} Linear perspective is an approximate representation, generally on a flat surface, of an image as it is seen by [[station point|the eye]]. Perspective drawing is useful for representing a [[three-dimensional space|three-dimensional]] scene in a [[plane (mathematics)|two-dimensional]] medium, like [[paper]]. It is based on the optical fact that for a person an object looks N times (linearly) smaller if it has been moved N times further from the eye than the original distance was.
 
The most characteristic features of linear perspective are that objects appear smaller as their distance from the observer increases, and that they are subject to {{em|foreshortening}}, meaning that an object's dimensions along[[Parallel (geometry)|parallel]] to the [[line of sight]] appear shorter than its dimensions across[[perpendicular]] to the line of sight. All objects will recede to points in the distance, usually along the horizon line, but also above and below the horizon line depending on the view used.
 
[[Italian Renaissance]] painters and architects including [[Filippo Brunelleschi]], [[Leon Battista Alberti]], [[Masaccio]], [[Paolo Uccello]], [[Piero della Francesca]] and [[Luca Pacioli]] studied linear perspective, wrote treatises on it, and incorporated it into their artworks.
