Ahh that damn painting. I think we studied it at college for a whole sodding term!Once you see that he fucked up the foot on the left and repainted it, you can never unsee.

Isn't there a theory......that he used a lens and traced the projected image?
This also accounts for the size of the painting - it's something to do with a limitation introduced by the maximum size of decent lenses that they could make in those days.
Still a good painting though - I particularly like the reflection in the mirror in the background.

I think some renaissance artistsused pinhole camera setups (camera obscura?) to sketch their sitters, so it's possible.
