Scott Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 'Magic mirror': Hidden image revealed in reflection of centuries-old artifact The Cincinnati Art Museum's discovery of a 400-year-old 'magic mirror' reveals the image of a Buddha when light is shone on it in a particular way. (Source: Rob Deslongchamps / Cincinnati Art Museum via CNN) Amid the thousands of treasures in the Cincinnati Art Museum's East Asian art collection, a small bronze mirror dating back to the 15th or 16th century always seemed rather unremarkable. Last exhibited in 2017, it had spent much of the preceding decades in storage, where it sat on a backroom shelf alongside other objects excluded from public display. But the artifact had a secret hiding in plain sight. https://www.ctvnews.ca/lifestyle/magic-mirror-hidden-image-revealed-in-reflection-of-centuries-old-artifact-1.5985516 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its quite reasonable to ask if your post is on topic if there doesn't appear to be relevance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
