Old Masters
I came to this painting also. The discarded shoes caught my eye first of all, but then I started to examine the picture closer. I thought the woman seemed incredibly young, a child still, but I guess they married a lot younger in those days. But the more you look into the painting, the deeper into it you are drawn, and the mirror (yes, another one) in the centre of the painting blew me away. The attention to detail is amazing in this. You can see their reflection in the mirror and beyond them, again you see the viewer of the characters - me/you/the viewer? Probably not in this case but it's a similar effect to the previous painting, but not quite so unnerving. The detailing doesn't stop there - around the mirror are tiny circles and in each circle is yet another painting. Wow.
