Mother and Child (The Oval Mirror) is an oil-on-canvas painting by the American Impressionist artist Mary Cassatt. The painting depicts a mother and her child in front of a mirror. The painting provides a glimpse of the domestic life of a mother and her child, evoking religious iconography from the Italian Renaissance. [1]
The Ronchi grating is a short distance (less than 2 cm) closer to the mirror. [citation needed] The observer sees the mirror covered in a pattern of stripes that reveal the shape of the mirror. The pattern is compared to a mathematically generated diagram (usually done on a computer today) of what it should look like for a given figure.
The Museum of Illusions refers to this type of mirror as an "antigravity mirror" because as it rotates once around the line-of-sight axis, the reflected image rotates twice, appearing upside-down when the joint is horizontal. Another type of non-reversing mirror can be made by making the mirror concave (curved inward like a bowl).
A convex mirror diagram showing the focus, focal length, centre of curvature, principal axis, etc. A convex mirror or diverging mirror is a curved mirror in which the reflective surface bulges towards the light source. [1] Convex mirrors reflect light outwards, therefore they are not used to focus light.
A self-contained infinity mirror used as a wall decoration. In a classic self-contained infinity mirror, a set of light bulbs, LEDs, or other point-source lights are placed around the periphery of a fully reflective mirror, and a second, partially reflective "one-way mirror" is placed a short distance in front of it, in a parallel alignment.

Therefore, the transparency is placed face up (toward the mirror and focusing lens), in contrast with a 35mm slide projector or film projector (which lack such a mirror) where the slide's image is non-reversed on the side opposite the focusing lens. A related invention for enlarging transparent images is the solar camera.
