When you don't have time to cut out the eyes in a painting for a Portrait Painting Peephole, the next best thing to do is strike a pose and imitate a painting or picture so as to spy on your friends. When you get right down to it, this is a trope that really requires only two dimensions in order to work, as anyone with a functioning brain could probably determine the difference between a highly realistic painting, and someone sitting in a room behind the wall because of depth perception.

BoJack Horseman: In the episode "Surprise!", when the guests of Mr. Peanutbutter's surprise party have to avoid Mr. Peanutbutter seeing them, Captain Peanutbutter and his wife hide behind picture frames. This becomes awkward when Mr. Peanutbutter picks up the picture frames (with Captain and his wife standing up to keep their heads in the frames) to talk about how Captain secretly confided in him that he feels trapped in a loveless marriage. | |

The Simpsons: In the episode "Double, Double Boy in Trouble", Bart comments on a poster of Joe Montana, but it turns out to be Joe Montana standing in a hole in the wall. In "Monty Can't Buy Me Love", Lisa watches DVD Commentary for The Postman, with Kevin Costner narrating using a split-screen. It turns out he's actually inside the television, and steps out to talk to her. |

El Fundador in ¡Mucha Lucha! has this as his wrestling theme. He is first encountered standing absolutely still in a hall of records, indistinguishable from the other artifacts of the school's history. He then reveals himself as the real deal, then starts moving around. As it seems, the picture frame itself is part of his luchador outfit, and he wears it wherever he goes. | |

Fozzie Bear and Avery Schreiber did a sketch based on this in one episode of The Muppet Show. Schreiber, playing a museum curator, sits next to what looks like a portrait of Fozzie to eat his lunch, but while he isn't looking, Fozzie reaches out of the frame and steals his apple and then his sandwich. Thinking he's got away with it, Fozzie proceeds to eat the sandwich until Schreiber appears in the frame next to him and begins throttling him - then they notice Rowlf walk up with his lunch and repeat the trick on him together. | |

Yoh does this in Crying Freeman. In this case, he was actually standing in for a painting of himself, and it was on an easel, not a wall, so he just switched in an empty frame and stood behind it with the lights off. He only does it to fool police watching from outside, and once an actual person entered the room, she quickly noticed something was off and turned the lights on. | |

In WALL•E, the captain lures AUTO out by standing in front of a hologram of the plant, pretending that he has it. Then, he hides from AUTO (momentarily) by standing in front of his own portrait. This is slightly more realistic than most, since AUTO only has one camera, and so has no depth perception. | |

Jurassic Park An accidental version (or is it?) in Jurassic Park III. The characters are looking through the ruins of Jurassic Park's Mad Scientist Laboratory. Amanda Kirby walks along a row of murky tanks holding the remains of failed experiments and even a raptor...which looks directly at her and then jumps out from behind the tank to try and bite her head off. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. As the trucks roll into the ruins of Jurassic World there's a shot of some dinosaur toys in an abandoned souvenir shop...until one of them moves and we realise it's a tiny dinosaur. |

The Three Stooges: Justified in a 3D medium as the stooges are imbeciles, like in the short "The Hot Scots". Occasionally subverted in that we're left to assume the actual painting has come to life. The ghostly Shemp causing a portrait of a cowboy to shoot in "Heavenly Daze"; Curly being left to shake a sculpture's hand in "You Nazty Spy"; and a portrait of Napoleon catching the stooges' turkey and running away in "I'll Never Heil Again." |

The Curse of Monkey Island has a puzzle based on this trope: In order to convince a local innkeeper that he's a member of the Goodsoup family, Guybrush has to take a painting of one of the Goodsoups, cut out the face, paste the remains of the painting on a door with a porthole, and peek his head in through the other side of the porthole as the innkeeper arrives to admire his paintings. Lampshaded subtly in that the innkeeper says he feels as if the painting's eyes are following him, Ã la Mona Lisa. | |
