Art Tour -- Trompe L'oeil -- Other

Upper Left: Historical photo showing the corner trompe l'oeil fountain that was painted in the corner of the Ship Shop wall when the mural was first painted. It was not restored with the rest of the mural. Upper Right: The two flower vases on the Gothic Pavilion are two dimensional cut-outs rather than full sculptures.
Bottom Left: Trompe l'oeil vase of flowers painted by Nigel Simmons on the side of the Toilets block. Bottom Right: Historical photo showing how the windows of White Horses used to be painted with a trompe l'oeil effect that showed what the reflection across the estuary looked like on those windows.
