Notes :
The term "trompe l'oeil" actually means in french "fool the eye"... In modern interior design, trompe l'oeil effects are used to expand inner space by suggestion depth.
Indications of the importance of draperies during this period (the reing of Louis XIV) are also found in the many trompe l'oeil wall and ceiling decorations that show elaborate textiles spilling over balustrades and around columns.Terme :
