The Picture Framer by Bill Mundy repeats itself endlessly

Trompe l'oeil is more of a style of painting than a movement.

In it for example, architectural details are rendered in extremely fine detail in order to create the illusion of tactile and spatial qualities. This form of painting was first used by the Romans thousands of years ago in frescoes and murals.

It can be seen in many towns and cities across Italy today where paintings on the side of buildings for instance, trick the eye into thinking that you are looking at doors, windows or alleyways, when in fact what you're looking at is a flat wall.

The above picture by British artist Bill Mundy is a perfect example of this type of artwork. In it we see the painting reappear endlessly within the picture frame and seemingly going on forever.
