Given the rectangle ABCD in angular perspective, produce side DA to E on base line. Divide EB into four equal parts, and from each division draw lines to vanishing point, then by means of diagonals, &c., draw the hexagon.

In Fig. 214 we have first drawn a geometrical plan, G, for the sake of clearness, but the one above shows that this is not necessary.

Fig. 214.

To raise the hexagonal figure K we have made use of the vanishing scale O and the vanishing point V. Another method could be used by drawing two hexagons one over the other at the required height.
