Trompe l'Oeil paintings have long commanded the interest of keen collectors everywhere. When you stand before a painting that you know full well is a flat surface -- and yet your eye tells you it is three-dimensional -- a state of perplexity exists until the mystery is solved. Once one comprehends the trickery, you salute the artist and celebrate his/her artful guile. These paintings represent a high degree of drawing skill, a comprehensive understanding of light and shadow, and a sophisticated ability to paint air -- that subtle quality that distinguishes the exceptional painter from the also-rans. Our Trompe l'Oeil shows have drawn a lot of attention and we plan more of these exhibitions for the future. As a result, we strive to keep an active inventory and encourage you to acquire fine examples of this painting genre. History bears out the high esteem in which this work held by knowledge collectors the world over.
