Non-linear Perspective(atmospheric)
• The effect of air and light on how an object is perceived by the viewer. The more air between the viewer and the object, the more the object seems to fade.
• Rendered in 2 dimensions by adjusting the size, position, color and value of objects in the artwork to mimic the actual effects of air and light in life (see handout).

Identifying the non-linear rules in use:
Colors are less intense with distance/Values lighten with distance
Size gets smaller with distance/ Details are lost over distance
Objects that overlap other objects seem to be less distant

Linear Perspective
• A system using lines that creates the illusion of depth and volume on a flat surface. – One-point: receding objects have one plane
facing parallel to the viewer– Two-point: receding objects sit on a corner
angle from the viewer – Three-point: receding objects show extreme
height or depth

Terms:
• Horizon lineHorizon line: line indicating eye level for the viewer
• Vanishing pointVanishing point: point to which all lines indicating the planes that go away from the viewer recede
• OrthagonalsOrthagonals (convergence lines): the lines that converge at the vanishing point.

Paolo Ucello: Too much of a good thing?He’s famous among linear perspective buffs for his exquisitely rendered sketch of a chalice using mathematical formulas. But…
would men, horses, and weapons only fall on orthagonals in an actual battle?
Battle of San Romano, 1397-1475.
