    The vanishing point theorem is the principal theorem in the science of perspective. It says that the image in a picture plane π of a line L in space, not parallel to the picture, is determined by its intersection with π and its vanishing point. Some authors have used the phrase, "the image of a line includes its vanishing point".

    A figure explaining point-projection prospective. S is the distance between an observer's eye and an observation point on an object that is a long rectangular wall facing to the observer at a tilted angle.

The name Byzantine perspective comes from the use of this perspective in Byzantine and Russian Orthodox icons ; it is also found in the art of many pre-Renaissance cultures, and was sometimes used in Cubism and other ...

    The horizon frequently features vanishing points of lines appearing parallel in the foreground.

    its vanishing point, found at the intersection between the parallel line from the eye point and the picture plane. The principal vanishing point is the vanishing point of all horizontal lines perpendicular to the picture plane. The vanishing points of all horizontal lines lie on the horizon line. If, as is often the case, the picture plane is ...
