摘要：Shadows are a physical phenomenon which due to its emphasis of the third dimension might have acquired more significance in architecture and fine arts than in physics. Shadow drawing thus represents one of the ways in which a three-dimensional space may be more clearly and comprehensively demonstrated on a two-dimensional medium. The research focused on the role shadows play in architecture and the study of descriptive geometry. An analysis of plans, sketches and perspectives showed that shadows played a significant role in the past when they were drawn by architects more numerously and carefully than in the previous century. Nevertheless,shadows have preserved their value even in the computer era,with the computer allowing for fast,easy and precise shadowing. An analysis of students' drawings and interviews with them revealed that shadows with their captivating beauty were indeed valuable in an introduction to descriptive geometry and as such contributed to the development of space perception.
