Today I thought I’d share a mural, as it is such a great example of the method by which solid objects painted on a flat surface are given the appearance of depth and distance. If you would like to see more of it, visit my original post on my Portuguese Blog.

This is the third of #SquarePerspectives for July Squares, and if you haven’t already I’d love it if you joined us. It is a daily challenge but if you prefer you can join us weekly or even just pop in occasionally with your squares. The only absolute rule for joining in is that your main photograph must be square in shape!
That’s a lovely mural, Becky, and very cleverly executed. It would be a good way to teach perspective in schools – more fun than pen and paper!
And, you’ve given me an idea for a future square 🙂
But for today I have an aural perspective: https://travelwithintent.com/2020/07/03/music-on-the-water-bookshop-narrowboat-london/

Beautiful mural! Love how the road seems to continue “into” the wall.

That is a great example, I think I’m still struggling with the perspective idea!
