A small group of Chesapeake Chapter members met at the library of the National Gallery of Art to look at books related to perspective.

Special thanks to Chris Manson for setting this up.

Based on our interest in books relating to the teaching or explaining of perspective you can see that we had a nice table of books to look at. There were 8 or so more than this. Jill Cypher seems to have found something with a bit of added interest.

Above: It is nice to often grab a look and look at the printing quality.

Above: It was so sort of “out of the blue” to see this book with colored paper.

Above: The complexity of some pages is remarkable. This book had dozens and dozens of similar pages.

Above: A clasp for holding the book tight.

Above: A nice view of most of our group.

On the way back to the car we passed this address and could keep from taking a photo.
