Looking Glass

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image of a wall with a hanging frame titled "Looking Glass" by an unknown artist. The frame is rectangular with a flat top and bottom and slightly raised sides. A second, smaller frame with an intricate design sits within the larger one. The top of the frame is adorned with a triangular shape. The frame appears to be made of a dark material, possibly wood or metal, with a subtle sheen. The frame's inner and outer edges are lined with a decorative, textured design. The frame hangs on a light grey wall with a rough texture. The frame's reflective surface is blank and white.
