الصفحة 1 - WHEN you begin to read this book, sit down very near the window, and shut the window. I hope the view out of it is pretty; but, whatever the view may be, we shall find enough in it for an illustration of the first principles of perspective (or, literally, of "looking through"). Every pane of your window may be considered, if you choose, as a glass picture ; and what you see through it, as painted on its surface.
