I've always been interested in album art as I am a huge music fan. This Camp Lo album above just happens to be one of my favorite hip hop albums ever. It's a bad image of it, but you get the point. The overlapping and relative height of all the people create the illusion of space. All of the people on the dance floor are overlapping creating a foreground and background. It allows the user to understand who is front and center in the image and who is a part of the background. And the relative height shows people in the background as a smaller size than the foreground people. We all know the people in the background aren't actually half the size of the people in the foreground, they are just further away so it creates that illusion. It would appear really weird if the people on the railing were the same size. Something would be off in the image.
