A novel approach for reconstructing texture-mapped, 3D scene models from a single painting or photograph is presented based on inside characteristics of single view. Gained a sparse set of characteristic parameters in three directions by automatic recognition, the vanishing points and vanishing lines are computed. With these projective attributes, the approach can build the model automatically. The key feature of the approach is an algebraic representation which unifies three typical measurements, and the approach keeps users from the problem of the camera′s internal calibration. We can save the data with VRML format, which gives a convenient way for browsing on internet. The approach has been shown to yield high quality results on a large variety of images.
