EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Distorting Mirrors" takes us on a journey into the realm of optics and perception. Created by Victor Adam, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection, showcasing the artist's talent for capturing the beauty and intrigue of scientific concepts. The image features an array of distorting mirrors, each reflecting a different shape and form. The vibrant colours and clever lighting add to the surreal atmosphere, inviting viewers to question their own sense of sight. As we gaze upon these distorted reflections, we are reminded of the intricate relationship between physics and our understanding of reality. Adam's work pays homage to Joseph Lawrence's book "The Book of Vision" published in 1951. This illustration captures the essence of Lawrence's visionary ideas about how our bodies perceive colours and shapes through light. It serves as a reminder that science can be both enlightening and enchanting. In this early twentieth-century masterpiece, Adam invites us to contemplate not only our physical appearance but also how we perceive ourselves in relation to others. Through his skilful use of lithography, he brings these scientific concepts to life with stunning detail. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let it serve as a reminder that beauty can be found even in distortion – both in art and in life itself.
