Trompe-l'œil

A still life painting by Samuel Dirksz van Hoogstraten that depicts the backside of a painting used as a letter-rack through the artistic technique trompe-l'œil. This technique, which is translatable as deceive the eye, uses realistic imagery to create the optical illusion that the depicted objects exist in three dimensions.

Painting: Samuel Dirksz van Hoogstraten
