The Forty-third FIGURE.

John James translation

The Plan of the Fortieth Figure in Perspective.

Illustration from Rules and Examples of Perspective proper for Painters and Architects, etc. In English and Latin: Containing a most easie and expeditious method to delineate in perspective all designs relating to architecture

By placing the Ground-line in this, much more remote from the Horizontal, than it is in the foregoing Figure, all Confusion is here avoided. The rest is evident from what has been often said on this Head, and a bare Inspection of the Figure. Parallels to the Ground-line must nevertheless be continu’d to the Visual TO, which falls without this Page; that from them may be rais’d the Elevation of the Length of this Design, which we shall handle in the next Figure.
