  • Cubist

Answer

Linear perspective is a technique used in art to create the illusion of depth on a two-dimensional surface. It involves using lines that converge at a single point, called the vanishing point, to create the perception of distance. Canaletto, an Italian painter, is renowned for his mastery of linear perspective in his cityscapes of Venice, capturing the depth and grandeur of the city's architecture and canals.
