Theatre curtains...to me, they are the most grand illusion and example of trompe l'oeil. Ravenswood Studios created this illusion.
Never pass up an opportunity to tour an opera house or old theatre...the trompe is usually well worth it!

Dear Theresa - I was looking at that magnificent curtain by Sfumato Pintura Escenica and thinking that it would be fun to have the walls of a room decorated with it at its original scale. I guess it's all that braiding that attracts me . . .
Mark-all that passementerie drew me in as well. I would love a wall done like that!
Teresa, stunning absolutely amazing!

passementerie is one of my favorite words. real or painted!
Theresa, thank you for these, Just wonderful. A Great way to unveil my day.
Wouldn't it be fun to have any of these on a wall or room for the holidays. You wouldn't need a tree or any other decoration!
...but how hard to take them down and how dull the world thereafter.
Theresa, These are a great way to unveil my day!
Wouldn't it be fun to have any one of these on the wall for the holidays. You wouldn't need tree or trimmings with this much red exuberance. But oh, how dull in January when they come down....
Oh Patrick..the Leo in me wants to walk though these curtains every day! LOL!
Ooooh trompe of the most scrummy. Tthe steps of the curtain creation is fascinating and Opera Garnier has to be one of my fave places for decorative loveliness. Thank you.
