"Lady in front of the Mirror" is a 1904 photograph by German artist Heinrich Kuhn. The photograph features a woman seated in front of a mirror, her reflection is visible, but only a portion of her face is visible. The piece evokes a sense of mystery and introspection. The muted tones and soft focus give the image a dreamlike quality. The photograph is a notable example of Kuhn's work in Pictorialism, a photographic movement that emphasized artistic expression and subjective interpretation over strict realism. The image is currently on display at the Städel Museum.
