1. A lighting system for illuminating an object comprising:

  • a first and second row of light sources, each row having at least one light source that generates light, and each row positioned outside the line of sight of an object, with each light source in the first and second row of light sources being directed towards a viewing side of the object; and

    a first set of optics positioned between the first row of light sources and the object; and

    a second set of optics positioned between the second row of light sources and the viewing side of the object and having different optical properties than the first set of optics;

    wherein the first set of optics scatters the light generated by the first row of light sources and directs it towards a first portion of the viewing side of the object, and the second set of optics scatters the light generated by the second row of light sources and directs it towards a second portion of the viewing side of the object that is farther away from the first and second rows of light sources than that of the first portion of the object, such that the first and second rows of light sources are capable of illuminating the viewing side of the object substantially uniformly.
