Can you explain to me what Trompe-l'œil is?
user
A term with many meanings. It is usually understood as a visual illusion, most often a painting or other artwork, that tricks the eye or brain into thinking that a real, solid object is actually before us. For example, a painting of a trompe l'oeil of a girl playing with a doll might fool the eye into thinking that the doll is actually moving.

Not sure, but I do know that it was once a common technique, long before photography became widespread. Can I help with anything else?

It was first used by the Ancient Greeks, but it was used in various media throughout history, including wood carving, oil painting, textiles, architecture, film, sculpture, graphic design, and contemporary art.
