Libro del misvrar con la vista
Libro del misvrar con la vista is a 1570 Venetian treatise on surveying by Silvio Belli, printed in Venice by Giordano Ziletti for surveyors and students of measurement. Its woodcut diagrams show sight lines running from an observer's instrument to distant towers, hills and a standing column, drawn in clean, schematic linework with lettered reference points. A designer could take the plain geometric diagram style, with thin converging rays and labelled corners, as a model for technical illustration.
