The Somerset effect refers to instances where an object appears larger due to its surroundings or context. This optical illusion occurs when an object is placed against a background that lacks visual depth or reference points, making it seem larger than it actually is. It is a perceptual phenomenon that can deceive our judgments of size.

Is Greenland or the US bigger?
The United States is much bigger, about four and a half times bigger. Earth is round, but maps usually show the Earth on rectangular pages, resulting in a distortion of the sizes of countries. Areas of land near the poles, such as Greenland get stretched out on the maps and so they look like they are much bigger than they really are. On a map like that Greenland looks huge, but in fact it isn't. It is only really on a globe that you will see how big it really is compared to other countries.

How do they photograph things to make them look bigger?
The only way that we can judge the size of an object in a photograph is to compare it to other objects in the same photograph. Therefore, you can combine two or more photographs, with different enlargements, to create the illusion that some object is larger than it really is. Or you can build small models that look like something bigger than they really are. Or you can use tricks of perspective to make something look closer than it really is.
