"Inside and outside (The shop window)" is a 1972 painting by Australian artist John Brack. The artwork is a depiction of a shop window, with the subject of the painting, a man wearing a suit, appearing to be flattened by the window pane. The scene is framed by the shop window, creating a sense of both inside and outside. The artist is known for his realist style, often portraying everyday life in Australia, which can be seen in this artwork. The composition is simple, yet effective, in highlighting the unique perspective of the observer through the window.
