Historical perspective

Visiting the Ashmolean museum in Oxford, I made examples of a couple of angles of perspective that interested me while I was there.


The Cornered Gallery

This area not only provided a challenging off-center perspective, but also presented difficulties with how to portray a noticeably large space in the ceiling design.

The Weeping Angel

An unfinished study looking into the perspective of a statue in front of a circular recessed portion of marble.

If the stairs could talk...

A lot of angles of perspective needed to be accounted for here, with the added shading providing sufficient depth and detail.
