Zung - Raphael
Raphael Sanzio, was an Italian painter and architect of the French renaissance , who, together with Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo formed the trinity of great masters of that period. Raphael was prolific, and despite his early death at the age of 37. left a large amount of artwork behind, especially in the Vatican.
In the above piece "Mond Cruxifiction", space is created with the use of a horizon line and a vanishing point where lines meet behind the cross on the horizon line. Space is also created by the use of lightness and contrast (so objects closer to the viewer are generally lighter), sharpness (the background scenery is blurry) and size. Objects closer to the viewer are larger in size.
