The Trompe L'Oeil Theatre

Trompe L'Oeil in miniature. Treat yourself to a a piece of art by one of Britain’s finest decorative painters. Lucinda’s Oakes hand painted wallpapers can be seen in the best international hotels and country houses.

Long-standing admirers of her craft, Benjamin Pollock’s Toyshop commissioned her to paint her own imaginary theatre. Originally called ‘The Decorator’s Theatre’, it features the artist at work, painting the side wings in trompe l'oeil. The interior and exterior scenes are reversible and it also includes a fully working theatre curtain. The theatre is populated with a cast of dogs including a pug, terrier, schnauzer and a vizsla.

This beautiful paper theatre and piece of ‘art in miniature’ is available in a limited edition of 200, with each being signed and numbered by the artist.
