Mirror 1941

"Mirror" is a 1941 watercolor by Archie Thompson (1855-1995). The artwork depicts a detailed, ornate, gold-framed mirror. The top of the mirror has a smaller, framed insert with a depiction of a ship at sea, with the water appearing tumultuous. The mirror itself appears to be cracked or damaged, showing a reflection of the artist's studio. The artwork is a study of realism, with intricate detail and life-like depictions. It also explores themes of reflection and time. The "Mirror" likely draws viewers into the reflective surface of the mirror, making them consider their own reflection and the passing of time.
