Still Life with Mirror is a lithograph by the Dutch artist M. C. Escher which was created in 1934.[1] The mirror mingles together two unrelated spaces: the outside world of a narrow street in Villalago, a small town in Abruzzi, and the internal world of the bedroom.[2] This work is closely related to his later use of similar incongruity in Still Life and Street, 1937.[3] Escher manipulates the scale in different parts of the print to achieve the effect of smooth connection between worlds.[4]
