I need help from art buffs here (I'm looking at you Rob!). My dad's friend has this picture of a plane that is flying towards me. Fair enough. Now I walk around the picture and it's still facing towards me! I don't know if it's an illusion or what but it's a watercolour painting, there is no trickery involved. My dad's friend says that it works similarly with the Mona Lisa stare. She stares at you from everywhere you look!

How does this work?

Thanks in advance.
