This image shows a scene with 'one-point' perspective. The road converges to a single point in the distance, known as the 'vanishing point'.
The Battle of San Romano by Paolo Uccello was painted in about 1440. It is a 6’ x 10’7” egg tempera with walnut oil and linseed oil on poplar painting. Notice the foreground, middle
ground and background (distant) figures.
Copying and pasting the man in the middle ground and placing him next to the man in the foreground highlights the use of perspective in Pieter
Bruegel's painting.
Exam tips:
* Do one foreground, one middle ground and one background (distant) version of the same object/ person, going from large to smaller, to even smaller.
*Background (distance) parts of the picture can be painted in paler colours (e.g. 'tints' of the brighter foreground colours.
