Perspective is the choice of a single point of view from which to sense, categorize, measure or codify experience, typically for comparing with another. Viewpoint is another word for this principle - with a similarly broad interpretation. It may be '''visual''' or '''mental''', related to [[cognition]].
Within the visual fine arts (painting, sketching, etching, etc.) as well as within scientific graphics (with drafting instruments), the word perspective denotes a technique of representing three-dimensional objects on a planar surface with the aim of retaining the illusion of three-dimensional space.
