The image the essay opens and closes on. A reflection that refuses to show you what it should is a precise figure for the problem the essay is describing, and the title does the rest of the work by itself.
Magritte died in 1967, so the painting remains in copyright until the end of 2037. The holding institution is recorded from general knowledge and has not been confirmed.
