内容简介

A vividly illustrated and richly detailed manual for crafting decorative trompe l'oeil motifs and murals.

From the co-author of the popular Handbook of Painted Decoration comes an advanced exploration of expert trompe l'oeil art and technique. Following the designs and step-by-step illustrations of an award-winning French decorative painter, interior designers and decorators will learn how to refine their skills as well as build new techniques to expand their repertoire. The book provides numerous designs that can be duplicated, as well as inspiration for designers to fashion their own creations.

Covering a wide range of subject matter, from monumental landscapes to ornamental friezes, Yannick Guégan demonstrates the execution of elegant wood, marble, natural, and figurative motifs for decorative panels and panoramic murals. He integrates fine French methods and traditions-such as the incorporation of classical capitals and temples-with contemporary style and innovation, depicting each step from first sketch to finished product in full color. This is an excellent instruction manual as well as reference tool for anyone working in interior design and decoration. 300 color illustrations, 8 gatefolds.
