About the piece
Created by the Flemish master of illusion Cornelis Norbertus Gijsbrechts in 1672, this work is a superb example of trompe l'oeil painting. The composition features a riding whip, a velvet letter bag, and a vibrant striped scarf, all rendered with such precision that they appear to hang physically from the light-colored wooden wall.
