Scope note
Refers to drawings, or works in another medium, created by oblique projection, in which parallel lines remain parallel. Typically two spatial axes are parallel to the plane of projection or drawing surface, and a third axis is projected at an angle other than 90 degrees to the plane. For drawings in which objects are depicted at an angle to the picture plane but parallel receding lines converge, use "oblique perspectives."
