The View from Here by Harriet Hill (b. 1966) captures a three room structure through a flat perspective. The painting is broken into three segments, characteristic of a flat triptych, with a latticed arch façade containing the entirety of the structure. Each section contains a room with a window where Hill capturies the light filtering through the window by varying the shade of the checkered floor. Beyond the window, a cityscape is captured abstractly with tall buildings of stacked cylinders. A doorway leads between each of the rooms, distorting the perspective as the viewer can see the walls on the side of each room as it joins the other, only divided by the pillar making up the foreground facade. Darker lines of paint and slight shade changes provide a slight illusion of depth throughout the work, althought the outer facade and distorted perspective create an overall flattened piece. 

Much of Hill's work is captured in three panels or sets, and often depicts abstract geometric structures and darkened doorways. Hill has an interest in depicting architecture across many of her works through different mediums, reflective here through using an oil on gesso on wood to have a smooth, flattened piece that otherwise has much depth through various shading techniques.
