Raisonnement sur la perspective : pour en faciliter l'usage aux artistes
Petitot's 1758 treatise on perspective, printed at Parma by the Faure brothers, was written to make the method usable for artists. Its plates are engraved geometric diagrams of orthogonal and ground plans, sight lines converging on a vanishing point, and a circular domed interior, so a designer can study how depth is built from plan and elevation.
