Richard Haas was profiled on CBS News "Sunday Morning" show. He is the world's #1 muralist and trompe d'oiel artist. Impressive!!!!

(American, b. 1936) is one of the world's leading architectural muralists, and is best known for his trompe l'oeil paintings. His paintings are held in collections of the Museum of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Museum, the Whitney Museum, the Yale University Art Gallery, and the Fogg Art Museum. He has exhibited at the Brooklyn Museum, the Whitney Museum, and others.

He has created numerous "make-believe" buildings, including an entire streetscape at Manhattan's South Street Seaport, 13 murals of New York publishing houses for the New York Public Library, Smithsonian Institution exteriors on an interior wall, and an entire exterior façade of the Boston Architectural Center. This depiction of Battery Park at night incorporates an almost photographic image. The buildings are delineated in a painterly style but with the sharpness of an architect’s eye.
