• Trompe L’Oeil

What is it? Qu’est-ce-que c’est?

In art, trompe l'oeil is defined as a 'still life deception', a painting able to make the viewer believe that an object actually exists in 3D space, in relief. It also means illusion, a deceptive appearance, eye-wash or camouflage, in short 'Fool the eye'!
