Trompe-l'œil (French for deceive the eye, pronounced [tʁɔ̃p lœj]), which can also be spelled without the hyphen and ligature in English as trompe l'oeil,[1] is an art technique that uses realistic imagery to create the optical illusion that depicted objects exist in three dimensions. Forced perspective is a comparable illusion in architecture. History in painting[edit] Still life, Pompeii, c. 70 AD Though the phrase originates in the Baroque period, when it refers to perspectival illusionism, trompe-l'œil dates much further back.

Perspective theories in the 17th century allowed a more fully integrated approach to architectural illusion, which when used by painters to "open up" the space of a wall or ceiling is known as quadratura. A fanciful form of architectural trompe-l'œil, quodlibet, features realistically rendered paintings of such items as paper-knives, playing-cards, ribbons, and scissors, apparently accidentally left lying around.[2] In other art forms[edit] Old Masters Contemporary.
