Artists from around the world gathered in Lodi, Italy for the annual three day festival.

The public was invited to view works displayed by the conferees and watched as many of the artisans created trompe l'oeil art on blank canvases hanging in the public market place.

The artists also attended conferences and informal masters' sessions with their peers.

Participation in the annual festival was by invitation only to trompe-l'oeil artists from around the world. Coggeshall was one of two artists participating from the United states.
