The cylinder is on the piece as they work. I’m pretty sure that the artists draw these by looking at the reflection only, not at the paper. The cylinder is on the piece as they work.

The oldest example I've found in the net is from 1638. It is a book called "La Perspective Curieuse" from french mathematician Jean Francois Niceron.<br/><br/>There is a digitized version of the book at the <a HREF="http://fermi.imss.fi.it/rd/bp" REL="nofollow"> "Bibliotheca Perspectivae"</a> in Florence. I'm afraid, but it it's not possible to link to the book directly. So, if you're interested in, you have to follow the link above, select the letter -N- in the menu and then just click on the lowermost icon on the right side. You can browse throug the entire book afterwords. <br/><br/>If this was too complicated or in case you just don't succeed, I wrote a small posting about it a <a HREF="http://www.thomas-uebelacker.de/?p=109" REL="nofollow">here</a> (in german, sorry).<br/><br/>Btw.
