This drawing shows towers from above, with lines and shapes helping to create a sense of depth. It's a lesson in perspective, which was an important skill for artists to learn. The artist used simple lines and shapes to create a sense of height and distance, which is pretty interesting. You can learn more about this technique at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
