The swivelling of Diana’s body is not at all sinuous, for the leg being dried by her attendant throws it out of balance, while equivocal position of her upper body makes her head look as if it were borrowed from a smaller person. They single out Hogarth’s “Satire on False Perspective” as an exemplary lesson in diagrammatic correlation because of its overlay of `fractional visual fields’ that challenge the assumptions of one-point perspective by situating in the eye in a grid of rival viewing positions.

Its lattice of white perpendicular white lines and transverse volutes, showing up against a darkened or blushing skin, acts like a fan or jalousie to obstruct one option of the viewer and to encourage another. The man portrayed on the hill stands out against the lighter hills, and therefore was the first apparent illusion to me as he appears not only to be portrayed as a very large and giant-like character in the distance but he also appears to be lighting his pipe with the candle belonging to the woman who is leaning out of the window. The swan in the distance also appears remarkably larger than the men in the boat - this is a fine example of why object size within an image is very important; everything has to be in proportion to ensure realism is given to the image. 26-268).

Neither of them however was able to view the phenomenon dispassionately:  Banks found himself revolted by faces rendered “enormously ugly,” but at the same time he was fascinated by “the immence Elegance and Justness of the figures in which it is form’d” (Banks 1962: 2.213-4).

Bender and Marrinan write, “Hogarth’s humour erupts at the juncture where the fixed, mathematically governed focus of classical linear perspective meets the curvature of physical eyes and their continuous scanning motion” (Bender and Marrinan 2010: 63).
