DESCRIPTION
Mirrors in the engravings and paintings of Abraham Bosse. I start with his Five Senses series, but at the show many more mirrors, including his nearly ethnographic depictions of the Parisian life in the 17th century. More could be read in my blog posting on this subject http://artmirrorsart.wordpress.com/2013/11/16/1253/
