An infinity mirror effect viewed between paired mirrors in a public bathroom. The infinity mirror (also sometimes called an infinite mirror) is a configuration of two or more parallel or angled mirrors, which are arranged to create a series of smaller and smaller reflections that appear to recede to infinity.
A common sense of the phrase is the visual experience of standing between two mirrors and seeing an infinite reproduction of one's image. [1] Another is the Droste effect , in which a picture appears within itself, in a place where a similar picture would realistically be expected to appear. [ 2 ]
For instance, ‘mirroring’ can occur once, several times (on a lower and yet on a lower and so on level) or (theoretically) an infinite number of times (as in the reflection of an object between two mirrors, which creates the impression of a visual abyss).
An Infinity of Mirrors was the fifth and most ambitious book by the American satirist and political novelist Richard Condon. First published by Random House in 1964, it is set in France and Germany of the 1930s and 1940s, as seen through the eyes of a beautiful, rich Parisian Jew and her beloved husband, an old-fashioned Prussian army general.
Multiple reflections in two plane mirrors at a 60° angle. When light reflects off a mirror, one image appears. Two mirrors placed exactly face to face give the appearance of an infinite number of images along a straight line. The multiple images seen between two mirrors that sit at an angle to each other lie over a circle. [3]

The overall reflection of a layer structure is the sum of an infinite number of reflections. The transfer-matrix method is based on the fact that, according to Maxwell's equations , there are simple continuity conditions for the electric field across boundaries from one medium to the next.
