A street artist has produced this dizzying work giving the impression of a deep crevasse on a flat pavement
Müller, 40, said that this type of street art had not been around for very long, even though the technique had been used by artists on other surfaces for centuries 
The German explained: "Three-dimensional street painting itself is a very new art form which only a handful of people do worldwide. Its nature is to trick people's eyes and show them a new 'reality'"
"The technique itself is called anamorphism and has been known since the Middle Ages. It was used by famous painters like Michelangelo, da Vinci and others in their murals"
The work, called Ice Age, was created last August for the port town's Festival of World Cultures 
The artist's previous works include a German high street apparently riven by a lava chasm
The work, called Use Your Eyes, was painted in the town of Geldern 
The painting covered about 400 square metres of the streetMore
