Mona Lisa's Escape (Weekend Reflections # 498)

Rome, Italy

One day while walking through a narrow street in Rome, I looked into the workshop of master violin maker, Michel Eggimann.  The shop was closed and the latticed window was broken, but I did see a poster of Mona Lisa holding a violin. I also saw the reflection of a doorway across the street. It almost seems like the poster hanging inside the workshop is attached to the reflected door from across the street.  :o)  
The Mona Lisa poster is not a reflection. 
The doorway and wall are reflected. 
Happy reflecting!

Reflections often put together unique subjects, and your photo is a great example. Like your title. Have a good weekend, James.

magnifique reflet agrémenté de cet éclat dans la vitre. Il y a plein d'histoires à imaginer depuis cette simple photo. Bon weekend

I agree with kwarkito - lot of stories to imagine.

Now this one is really amazing. Imagine what a difficult puzzle that would make...:)JP

Really a neat one in the making, James. Too bad the place wasn't open. I need to go someplace with a lot of reflections, won't be toward the end of the year. Rome would be okay, been there once and a gypsy by the Coliseum tried to strip my jewelry and run. She got nothing.

merci & bon weekend :)

I saw the original and was brought to tears. Mona looks grand no matter what the circumstances. :)

Pas mal du tout. Il faut démêler ce qui se passe sur la photo et l'ensemble est bien intéressant.
