Lewes Eye Teaser
If you look at the toy phone boxes in the previous photo, you'll see they are quite different in size, and yet here, when placed on this painting by R. Demyer of a street in Lewes, they seem much closer in size. I can't quite figure that one out. You'd think the little pencil sharpener phone box would appear smaller--as it does when placed right next to the "piggy" bank phone box. Curious. Anyone have an explanation? I know it has something to do with perspective and vanishing points and all, but I don't know how to explain it.
