Summary/Abstract: To say that there is one way of looking at things in a mirror is moot. The ambivalent position of the viewer, who is paradoxically also the viewed, as s/he watches himself/herself in the mirror, as merely confrontational, standing in front of the mirror, no angles, no nuances involved is what begets ambiguity in terms of reflection and rendition in literature or in the visual arts. This paper looks at that very ambiguity.
