A Desargues configuration is a planar figure consisting of ten undistinguished points and ten lines with the well-known meaning of a geometric-algebraic axiom for interpretation as an image of a three-dimensional figure. We consider the ten homologies defined by such a configuration. We give an analytic proof for the fact that such a configuration defines a unique polarity too. The (labelled) Desargues figure, i.e., two perspective triangles together with the perspectivity center and axis, can be extended to perspective n-gons, which allow higher dimensional generalizations of the classical interpretation of a Desargues figure in space. Furthermore we consider multi-perspective triangles and an iteration process defined by a pair of not-perspective triangles.
