The Illusion of Depth Video - perspective study
Here some generalizations in case the video gets pulled from YouTube
Linear (one point)Perspective
Atmospheric/Aerial PerspectiveThe fading of colors towards the horizon. Clarity and intensity of colors in foreground are greater than those in the background.
Foreshortening -Supper at Emmaus by CarravagioDepiction of the body parts
Look at Caravvagio "Supper at Emmaus" the foreshortening of the arms and hands created an illusion of depth. It also serves to invite the viewer into the painting's space.
Look at Andrea Mantegna's "Lamentation over the Dead Christ". The foreshortening of Christ's body creates an atmosphere in which the viewer shares the room. The illusion is further strengthened by the feet stretching over the marble slab.
Cast shadow of objects - Painting of Flowers by Barbara BuerThe cast shadows of the vase and flowers further enhance the illusion of depth on the
table.
