Scope note
Refers to perspective drawings having a stationpoint well below normal eye level, typically depicted as if seen from the surface of the earth or the floor, as if the viewer is lying down and looking straight up. For photographs or other images with low viewpoints, but where precise calculation of perspective is not employed or not emphasized, use "worm's-eye views."
