Your cat walks in and sits down — and because the painted arms sit in front of them, the Mona Lisa appears to be holding your actual cat in her lap\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThen you take a photo.

The fourth is the piece that does the trick: a \u003cstrong\u003edie-cut foreground board of her folded arms and hands\u003c\/strong\u003e that mounts in front of the opening.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThat separation between the arms and the cat behind them is what creates the depth.
