parallel perspective

Parallel perspective, also known as one-point perspective, is a method of drawing where parallel lines of an object that are perpendicular to the drawing surface are shown meeting at a single point on the horizon line. This technique creates an illusion of depth on a flat surface.12

In contrast to conceptual methods, perceptual methods like linear perspective depict objects as they are seen from a fixed viewpoint, making them appear to shrink as they recede into the distance and causing parallel lines to converge at a vanishing point. This system was rediscovered during the Italian Renaissance by Filippo Brunelleschi and documented by Leon Battista Alberti. While linear perspective dominated Western art until the late 19th century, artists like the Cubists later abandoned its use altogether.32
