La ligne d’horizon doit être la première indication dans la construction d’un dessin. Cette ligne va déterminer la justesse du point de vue du dessinateur. Mais ceci n’ est valable que si le dessinateur garde, par rapport à l'objet, une position fixe. Cela veut dire qu'après avoir choisi son point de vue, il ne doit plus modifier son champ visuel.  3, record 1, French, - point%20de%20vue
