An elevation view is a technical drawing that shows a vertical section of a building or structure, often used for architectural design and visualization. Hand-drawn elevation views are traditional methods used in architecture to depict the front, side, or top view of a building or landscape. In the context of a villa garden, such a drawing would illustrate the garden's design, including the layout of the garden, pathways, and architectural elements such as walls, gates, and buildings. These drawings are valuable for planning and communication purposes in the field of landscape architecture and garden design.
