One-Point Perspective

Audriana and I were assigned the one-point perspective. In pictures that use this perspective, the images get smaller as they move further away and converge at a vanishing point. Alberti was the first to describe the principles of the perspective. From a one-point perspective, there is a fixed observing point and a central vanishing point. The following image gives an example of a vanishing point.In a picture with two images, the two images are set 45 degrees apart. If the angle is too big, the image becomes distorted. The two images  converge to left and right vanishing points. The following picture gives an example of this.  The vanishing point is in the center of the picture.
