This photo shows a wooden easel holding a framed painting. The painting inside looks like a still life of fruit—peaches, grapes, and a melon—along with a golden vase and a basket. On the easel’s shelf below, there’s a half-used palette, a small portrait bust, and a bundle of brushes tied with string. The whole setup tricks your eye into thinking the painting is real. The easel’s frame even has a cloth draped over it like it’s part of the scene. Want to learn more? Check out the subject: easel.
