Traité des pratiques geometrales et perspectives : enseignées dans l'Academie royale de la peinture et sculpture
Abraham Bosse's 1665 Paris treatise on geometry and perspective, engraved and published by the author for students at the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture. The plates are line engravings of cubes, cylinders, prisms and trapezoids with cast shadows, ground lines, vanishing points and dotted construction rays, often lettered at the corners; useful for hatched shadow textures, dashed projection lines and lettered diagram frameworks.
