This piece is called The Ambassadors by Hans Holbein the Younger. This 16th century portrait painting of Jean de Dinteville and Georges de Selve is full of amazing detail and symbolism. There’s also a very unique optical illusion. A massive anamorphic skull plastered in the center of the painting. How did he create this illusion? We may never know. One thing’s for sure, this isn’t your average double portrait! Thank you for watching!
