The thing on the head being in front of the opening as opposed to in it is really bothering me

They get depicted pretty differently in old art than they do in pop culture.

Yes, I am unaware that the solid object matching the wall was a halo. I had already thought of that but I have never seen one drawn in this way

Not to be too mean to medieval artists, since they’re much better at art than I am, but why do they always have such weird-ass anatomy? Would it have been that difficult to have someone pose for reference?

You’ll need to find an extended explanation on your own but in essence - religion. The focus is on symbolism, and not on realism as it diverts attention. I remember seeing some examples of paintings made by the same artists for secular and religious purposes, and the secular ones were realistic. But it’s been quite a few years ago and the only thing I remember is that they might have been Italian painters working in the Eastern Roman empire that were recognised due to the messed up alphabet.

The artist had a model. but he moved too much in this scene and they didn’t find another one willing afterwards.

It’s meant to be viewed at a distance. :)
Shareni@programming.dev 11 months ago
Reverse perspective is more about symbolism than distance AFAIK

Why did that guy’s pants rip open?
Senseless@feddit.de 11 months ago
It didn’t rip open, it’s easy access.

Easy access in or out?
