About three hundred years after Piero della Francesca presented his perspective construction based on the plan and elevation technique, this perspective method enjoyed a veritable renaissance as part of descriptive geometry. This brief chapter deals with the emergence of descriptive geometry, how the discipline shares one of its basic idea with Lambert’s perspective geometry, and how perspective is treated in descriptive geometry.
