This scenario illustrates the texture gradient, which refers to the fact that texture appears more detailed and textured up close, but less detailed and smoother when seen from a distance. Linear perspective pertains to how lines appear to converge as they recede into the distance, while interposition is the perception that one object is in front of another. Accommodation refers to the adjustment of the lens in the eye to focus on objects at different distances.
