        its used in “not to be reproduced” 1937 as well. only noted because it’s one of his better known works

          I meant what do you mean by mirror reflection trick?

            You can see the left candle stick, but not the right one. This is despite the fact that the reflection should be transposed left (like the clock in the middle). In other words, the reflection is wrong, which isn’t immediately obvious, but gives an ‘off’ vibe.

            The reflections in the mirror are off, reinforcing the sense of surrealism.
