exhibition catalogue: Florence, Palazzo Strozzi, 16 October 2009\u201324 January 2010<\/p>\n

The motif of trompe l\u2019\u0153il\u2014optical illusion\u2014has traversed all of Western art, going back to the classical world and the legendary contest between Zeuxis and Parrhasius. Every artistic expression from painting, first and foremost, to sculpture and the applied arts has ceaselessly experimented with the fascinating challenge of mimesis. There are countless examples: the inlaid wooden cabinets\u2014left ajar\u2014of the Renaissance, tabletops made of scagliola and semi-precious stones with an array of seemingly three-dimensional objects, porcelains designed to make tureens and knick-knacks look like vegetables, and the anatomical and botanical wax models of the 18th and 19th centuries.
\nThe richly illustrated exhibition catalogue, published by Mandragora and edited by Annamaria Giusti, features essays by Cristina Acidini, Sybille Ebert-Schifferer, Fauzia Farneti, Marc Fumaroli, Miriam Milman, Mark D. Mitchell and Jan Muylle, who probe the simulation of reality in every medium, from painting to sculpture and architecture.
\nThese essays are accompanied by an examination of the exhibited works, divided into ten sections. The entries cover virtually every era from the 1st century bc to the pres-ent day, examining Pompeian art, polyacrylic resins, holograms and Flemish painting\u2014with master-pieces by Cornelis Norbertus Gijsbrechts\u2014and ranging from the applied arts to the experimentation of painters of the calibre of Mantegna, Titian, Tintoretto, Vel\u00e1zquez and Tiepolo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2103,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[99],"product_tag":[1529],"class_list":["post-2106","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-catalogues","product_tag-palazzo-strozzi-en","first","outofstock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nArt IllusionsMasterpieces of Trompe-l'\u0153il from Antiquity to the Present Day - Mandragora<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandragora.it\/en\/prodotto\/art-illusions-masterpieces-of-trompe-loeil-from-antiquity-to-the-present-day\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Art IllusionsMasterpieces of Trompe-l'\u0153il from Antiquity to the Present Day - Mandragora\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"edited by Annamaria Giusti exhibition catalogue: Florence, Palazzo Strozzi, 16 October 2009\u201324 January 2010 The motif of trompe l\u2019\u0153il\u2014optical illusion\u2014has traversed all of Western art, going back to the classical world and the legendary contest between Zeuxis and Parrhasius.
