Image description

Pillars in Perspective. The three posts in the corridor are all of exactly the same size. This can be verified by actual measurement, although the one furthest away appears much larger than the nearest. This illusion is caused by the lines of the corridor being correctly drawn in perspective, whereas the posts are not drawn in perspective. Illustration for one of a set of cigarette cards on the subject of Optical Illusions, published by Ogden's, early 20th century.
