    Projective geometry

    Projective geometry is a non-metrical form of geometry, notable for its principle of duality. Projective geometry was first systematically developed by Desargues in the 17th century based upon the principles of perspective art, although it did not achieve prominence as a field of mathematics until the early 19th century through the work of Poncelet and others.
