Why do we see in the third dimension? How do anamorphic optical illusions work?
In order to see a flat, painted object as three-dimensional, we have to trick our senses and our brains using various drawing and painting tricks and techniques. By first drawing subjects on textured surfaces and then adding paint using the drybrushing technique, you can create incredibly realistic 3D artwork. Cutting away excess paper adds to the effect, making it almost impossible to distinguish reality from illusion.

Наполеон III – это имя для подавляющего большинства ассоциируется с прозвищем «Наполеон Малый» и воспринимается как пародийная копия своего дяди – императора Наполеона I. Так ли это?
Современная Италия и Румыния, туристическая Мекка – Париж, инженерное чудо – Суэцкий канал, межокеанские судоходные линии, манящие огни роскошных торговых центров, основы социального законодательства и многое другое – наследие эпохи правления Наполеона III. История часто несправедлива. По отношению к первому президенту Французской республики и последнему императору французов эта истина проявилась в полной мере.
