This is Signorelli's and Fra Angelico's Deeds of the Antichrist in Orvieto Cathedral. Signorelli was well noted for his use of foreshortening which can easily be seen in this piece in the structure in the background. Notice how the front face of the cube seems larger than the back face. In the rest of the piece, one can easily recognize his use of relative size, overlapping, and horizon.
