- Trompe L'oeil - Literally translated from the French, trompe l'oeil means "to deceive or trick the eye" and describes works whose subjects are presented so realistically that the viewer of the artwork or object believe they are looking at a three-dimensional object.
- Circa - A Latin term meaning 'about', often used in the antique trade to give an approximate date for the piece, usually considered to be five years on either side of the circa year. Thus, circa 1900 means the piece was made about 1900, probably between 1895 and 1905. The expression is sometimes abbreviated to c.1900.
