Juliet in the Mirror
c. 1940s

A hand-drawn image of a hand holding a round mirror that reflects a woman's face, with the mirror's edge and handle illustrated in black ink. The reflection is detailed and occupies the majority of the mirror's surface, showing the woman's eyes, nose, and mouth. The artwork combines sketching with photography for a mixed media effect.
