Instead:

No doubts remain. :)

It doesnt.

If you look closely you can see that the left corner bit is much closer than the right one, yet the statue looks flat.

That means that the shape must be distorted.

Or at least the right foot is not as it seems…

Oh, wait, I GET IT NOW!!!

THE SQUARES ARE NOT SQUARES! GENIUS!

Yessssssss…. I got it!

The squares are really diamonds or rhombuses or whatever, but viewing them from the right angle makes us think they are squares! Am I right?

also, sorry in advance if someone got the answer before me; I didn’t see it. Blame it on the delay.
