Abstract
The dawn of “Perspective” can trace back to the achievements by Craftsmen of the 16th century in southern Germany. Perspective used by artists and architects in the fifteenth century in Italy, after the death of A. Dürer, German Craftsmen: H. Rodler, E. Schön, A. Hirschvogel, W. H. Ryff, H. S. Beham, H. Lautensak, H. Lencker, and P. Pfinzing are succeeding a perspective and they have published textbooks on the perspective from 1531 through to 1599. In this study, we analyzed the textbooks authored by Craftsmen in the sixteenth century, and we consider on their perspective. The textbooks authored by H. Rodler and E. Schön had shown on the perspective method for the interior space of the building, and later, Craftsmen, except W. H. Ryff, has interested in drawing solid rather than space. Because they represent the space figure combined a model of three-dimensional complex. We can say to development “Perspective” by achievements of Craftsmen in the sixteenth century in southern Germany, North of the Alps.
