Summary "Lehrbuch der Perspective" by Gustav Conz is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work serves as a comprehensive manual on perspective drawing, specifically tailored for artists, discussing its principles and practical applications. The author emphasizes the significance of understanding perspective as a foundational skill for painters, distinguishing it from the more mathematically rigid approach often favored by architects. The beginning of the book introduces the author’s rationale for writing this guide, addressing the common struggles that artists face in mastering perspective techniques. Conz points out that many painters underestimate the value of perspective in their work. He outlines the differences in how architects and painters employ perspective, asserting that the painter must often rely on their observational skills and intuition rather than precise measurements. The opening establishes a pedagogical framework, intending to simplify perspective concepts and make them accessible for both artists and students alike. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
