Showed this to my partner. They asked why I like paintings and illustrations like this.

Old-timey paintings of towns are super super comfy to me, I guess it’s the same feeling

(Florence, by Hartmann Schedel, Liber Chronicarum, 15th century)



Paintings of towns from that era seem like someone really liked the architecture and not “how to make it look nice”. Look at those straight lines, this wasn’t painted by a neurotypical.
