"Apolinère Enameled" was painted circa 1916 by Marcel Duchamp, as an advertisement for paint. The picture depicts a girl painting a bed-frame with white enamelled paint. The depiction of the frame deliberately includes conflicting perspective lines, to produce an impossible object. To emphasise the deliberate impossibility of the shape, a piece of the frame is missing. The pieces is sometimes referred to as Duchamp's "impossible bed" painting.
