A unusual mid century large scale trompe l'oeil equestrian painting on panel.

inspired by the 17th century Trompe l'oeil artist J. Biltius. 

France circa 1950.

Height 39 inches, Width 55 inches.

Painted on a wooden panel this work seems to be both flat and in relief. The artist has displayed the tack room items as if they were laid flat on the wall and yet here are soft shadows indicating both the light and the depth.
