畫面裡的深度與遠景
最貼近核心、最具體的一組：真的用眼睛從一個點望出去，看到深度和遠方。這裡的 perspective 還停在「看」的層面。

核心畫面
You can picture 'perspective' as standing at one fixed spot and looking out: the lines run away toward the horizon, near things large, far things shrink, and from where you stand the whole scene falls into proportion.

可以想成：你站在一個固定的點往外看——線條朝著地平線退去，近的東西看起來大、遠的東西縮小，從你站的位置望出去，整個場景各就各位、比例分明。換個位置站，整幅畫面就變了。這個「從你所站之處望出去的樣子」，就是各種意思的種子。From the word’s history
From Latin perspicere = per- 'through' + specere 'to look' — 'to look through'. It began as the science of optics / drawing depth, and the mental senses ('viewpoint', 'sense of proportion') grew out of that literal act of looking.
源自拉丁文 perspicere，per-（穿透）+ specere（看），也就是「看穿、望進去」。它最早指的是光學、透視畫法，後來的「觀點」「分寸」都是從這個「望出去、看進去」的動作長出來的。
