Figure 5.26 To construct a box in one-point perspective, draw a horizon line (HL) and place a vanishing point
(VP) somewhere on this line; draw a square somewhere beneath the horizon—this will be the front of your box;
draw four lines, one from each corner of the square that must pass through the vanishing point; and lastly, draw
in the back vertical and horizontal to complete the box.
