picture

It’s really hard to see the picture when you are the one in the frame. (author unknown)

But what about setting a mirror in front of the picture? 

Would we be able to understand that the things we are seeing -  the elements which shape their form in our brain - are reflections of our own image?
Would we be capable of accepting that the artist who painted our image still had a lot to learn or just did not follow the conventional forms of expression ?
Or even worse -  would we be able to accept that the artist was not able to put his soul in to this picture? Our eyes gaze to something that has everything in place -
the technique is perfect - but there is just something missing.
