side view
Angle showing depth
A side view shows something from the side rather than from the front, back, top, or bottom.
The term appears most often in technical contexts—engineering drawings, architectural plans, or anatomy illustrations: The side view reveals the building's stepped profile.
In portraiture, a side view is called a profile.
