Centrolineads are technical drawing tools used to create perspective drawings where one or more of the vanishing points lie outside of the drawing board. Two forms of centrolinead were invented independently by Britons Peter Nicholson and John Farey Jr. in the early 1800s, for which they were both recognised by the Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce in 1814 with twenty guineas and the society's Silver Medal, respectively.[1][2]
