Discussion
Anamorphosis is a form of perspectival distortion in which an image appears fully formed only when viewed from a specific vantage point or with a special viewing device. Pioneered in the Renaissance, this technique has been used by artists from Leonardo da Vinci to Hans Holbein the Younger to encode hidden meanings. The 'Anamorphic & Illusion Art Editions' series comprises commercially available prints, sculptures and reproductions of Jonty Hurwitz's works in this genre.
