I am searching for a good reference book or other source which lists the
measurements of the Capitoline Hill Plaza in Rome. Michelangelo designed the
plaza to appear perfectly square (the sides do not appear to converge in
the distance) although it is actually a parallelogram.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
please send any suggestions as to sources for the plaza dimensions OR other
similar architectural illusions which are well documented to:
