The paper deals with special axonometric mappings of an n-dimensional Euclidean space onto a plane $\pi'$. Such an (n,2)-axonometry is given by the image of a cartesian n-frame in $\pi'$ and it is especially an isocline or orthographic axonometry, if the contour of a hypershere is a circle in $\pi'$. The paper discusses conditions under which the image of the cartesian n-frame defines an orthographic axonometry. Also a recursive construction of the hypersphere-contour in case of an arbitrary given oblique axonometry is presented.
