Augsburg's drawing, book 2. the vertical lines in the drawing are drawnparallel with the sides of the paper on which the drawing is made ;the horizontal lines parallel with the top and bottom of the paper;and that the horizontal receding lines converge to a point. 32 AUGSBURGS DRAWING. 33 The horizontal receding lines on the model converge in thesame manner as represented in the drawing, but it is difficult forthe untrained eye to see this convergence. The point to whichthese lines converge is the center of vision. The Center of Vision is an imaginary point directly opposHethe eye. All horizontal receding lines converge to tJiis point. E L (eye level) in Fig. 1 is the Horizon Line. The horizouline in drawing is the line that marks the level of the eye. It is thelevel-of-the-eye line. The center of vision being the point directlyopposite the eye is always in the horizon line. Objects drawnbelow the horizon line are said to be drawn below the level of theeye, and those above this line, above the level of the i-tvfL Using the vertical, horizontal, and horizontal receding lines,the box may be drawn in nine positions, viz. :Below the eye. Fig. the eye, Fig. 3. S4 AUGSBURGS DRAWING. At the left of the eye, Fig. 4. At the right of the eye, Fig. 5. Below and at the left of the eye, Fig. 6. Above and at the left of the eye, Fig. 7.
