A copy of Perspectiva corporum regularium in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, open to one of the pages depicting variations of the dodecahedron
Perspectiva corporum regularium (from Latin: Perspective of the Regular Solids) is a book of perspective drawings of polyhedra by German Renaissance goldsmith Wenzel Jamnitzer, with engravings by Jost Amman, published in 1568.[1]
Despite its Latin title, Perspectiva corporum regularium is written mainly in the German language. It was "the most lavish of the perspective books published in Germany in the late sixteenth century" and was included in several royal art collections.[2] It may have been the first work to depict chiral icosahedral symmetry.[3]
