This engraving shows that renderinQis the means by which the Illusion of realism is produced in a line drawing. Like every other aspect of the crea tive arts, rendering has principles th at are based on truths evolved over a number of cent uries. These principl es are used to introduce the illusion of realism into two-dimensional representations of three- dimensional objects and views. In this context the term 're- alism' means photographic realism, which is accepted in our society as the graphic truth. Though ren dering is a broad and complex subject it can be made much simpler if the basic principles are understood from the very beginning.
