La pratica di prospettiva is a 1625 Venetian treatise on perspective by Lorenzo Sirigatti, published by Pietro Miloco and aimed at students of theatre architecture and geometrical drawing. Its plates show solids built from pyramids, polyhedra and open frames, each rendered in fine engraved hatching with cast shadows, offering a designer a clear model for faceted geometric forms and their lighting.
