Eighty-ninth FIGURE.

An horizontal Projection of Architecture in a square Ceiling.

If the Ceiling be square, and very remote from the Eye, you may paint in it some such Piece of Architecture as this. A is the geometrical Elevation; the same reduc’d into Perspective in B and C does the Office of a Plan and Elevation. The Half of one of the four Parts may suffice for the Draught of the whole Work, either by tracing over the Lines of the Paper, or by pricking small Holes therein, and pouncing them through with Charcole finely powder’d.
