39. Illusion of Space by Linear Perspective

The Illusion of Space by Linear Perspective is also a spactial system. It is used when parallel lines recede and appear to converge and meet on an imaginary line referred to as the horizon line. This gives the illusion of depth as if you are going back into the distance of the composition. The street art to the right used linear perspective because the picture goes back to a horizon point. This gives the illusion that you can go farther back in the picture.
