anamorphosis

The curious fish-like object is simply the anamorphosis—the distorted projection—of a human skull.

It may indeed be a matter of very grave consideration whether true anamorphosis ever occurs in the whole animal kingdom.

On this disc is fixed the picture from which it is desired to make an anamorphosis.

The sun was setting, and its slanting rays caused the shadow to assume the appearance of an anamorphosis of ludicrous proportions.

The second kind of anamorphosis is produced by the distortion of the picture in the sense of one of its dimensions.
