"Five Dollar Bill 1900" is a trompe-l'œil still life painting by American artist John Frederick Peto (1854–1907). Created in the year 1900, this artwork exemplifies Peto's skill in rendering objects with meticulous detail and his fascination with the illusion of reality. The painting features a five-dollar bill from the era, depicted with such precision that it appears to be a real banknote affixed to the canvas. Peto's work often included the depiction of paper currency, books, letters, and other ephemeral items, which he arranged and painted to create a sense of depth and texture that challenges the viewer's perception.

John Frederick Peto, associated with the trompe-l'œil ("deceive the eye") genre, was a contemporary of William Harnett and is known for his distinct style that captures the play of light and shadow, as well as the effects of age and wear on everyday objects. "Five Dollar Bill 1900" is a testament to Peto's quiet yet compelling commentary on the material culture of his time and the transient nature of value and wealth. The painting is part of Peto's broader body of work that has been reassessed and celebrated for its artistic merit and contribution to American art history, particularly after a period of obscurity following the artist's death.

As a representative piece of Peto's oeuvre, "Five Dollar Bill 1900" not only showcases his technical prowess but also reflects the economic and historical context of the turn of the 20th century in the United States. The artwork is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied and admired for its complexity and the artist's ability to transform ordinary objects into subjects worthy of fine art.
