Exploring the intriguing world of convex mirrors, these artworks offer a glimpse into their captivating reflections. In "Still Life with a Skull," a convex mirror adds depth to the eerie scene, while Fanny Fanning's portrait reflects her regal beauty. The frontispiece to "The House Beautiful" by Clarence Cook showcases a convex mirror's ability to expand a room's appearance. In "Portrait of George Henckell," the mirror reflects the artist's introspective study. Musica's melody is mirrored in the curved surface of the 1895-97 painting. The Wizard's mysterious aura is amplified by the outward-reflecting light in the 1898 canvas. Waiting for an Answer's young man ponders, his reflection a reminder of introspection. A diagram illustrates the scientific principle at work, while a 1449 oil on oak panel depicts a goldsmith's shop, reflecting the artisan's craft. Through these works, the convex mirror's allure transcends its functional purpose, inviting us to ponder reflection, depth, and the intricacies of light.
