reflecting through

This spherical painting called a Termesphere shows a room with many other rooms off of it. On the walls of the rooms are many mirrors. These mirrors are really clear rectangles so you can see through the ball and see the back side of the ball. This works like a true mirror in that the image you are seeing on the back side of the sphere is behind and that is what a mirror is suppose to reflect. The only thing missing from the mirror is you. Look close inside and outside at the boy and the vase and also at the man in the couch.
