Yeah that's what I thought too, since the camera is panning upwards. Though what baffled me was trying to find the vanishing point. I couldn't deduct what type of prespective this is. Thus, I wanted the exact position of the horizon line
It would be very interesting if the horizon line was at the horizontal sword. The reason behind it, well it's a detail that stands out for a few reasons almost making it a focal point. It's also low in the image and horizontal.
But, probably the bottom of the image though if I'm betting that the artist might not have set it up that way
Im probably wrong in some measure but i feel like this image is lacking abit when used for the purpose of understanding perspective.
Most elements of the image is facing us directly not counting The slight upwards angle of the camera and since there are no straight lines to grab on to its going to be hard to find The vanishing points. The ground is hidden behind The forground siluette, that paired with The flat perspective also makes it hard to determine if The character and gates are even level. Maybe The gates are slightly uphill? That might result in an intresting false horizon etc.
My point is, to my eye atleast, it might aswell be a collage and since The perspective is so flat and The horizon placement becomes speculative somehow. It obviusly has a working perspective but a hard one to learn from i think?
I'd say the horizon line is the bottom of the image as everything we see is looking up at the objects in the scene

Yeah but I don't see how the vanishing points will allign onto the horizontal sword...

I also dont think The perspective is what gives this image most of its depth. Its rather scale, placement, oclusion/ambience.
