The Mirror is Integral to Who We Are, Claims Mr Mirror
Mr Mirror reflects on how mirrors can emulate the function of a self-portrait
(firmenpresse) - SHEFFIELD, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwire) -- 03/12/13 -- Van Gogh was renowned for it, and it would appear that our obsession with our own self-portrait has continued long after his time.
Four years before his death, Van Gogh painted more than three dozen self-portraits. But for him, the idea of painting himself was not out of vanity but to help him on his journey of self-exploration.
The way we look plays a central role in almost everyone's daily lives - how we dress, the way we style our hair, the way we wear make-up. The overall way we are perceived by others in society comes down to how we appear as much as how we behave.
When we're expected to look and dress a certain way, from our clothes to our physical appearance, none of this would be possible without the mirror.
A spokesperson for specialist online mirror retailer explained: "Almost everyone uses a mirror on a daily basis, not because we're vain but because it's an essential part of the daily routine.
"People want to look presentable, they want to make sure that they meet certain criteria when it comes to workplace dress codes for example, and the only way to do that is to see a reflection of themselves before they leave the house.
"The mirror plays an integral role in how we look, which in turn often impacts on how others perceive us. We all want to look good and feel confident and that's why mirrors are such an important household item."
But things have come a long way since Van Gogh's time. The mirror has evolved to become more than a practical item. It's a design statement too, used to create an instant impression and transform the look and feel of a room.
Mirrors are used to provide the illusion of space in smaller rooms and a sense of light in darker spaces. And in the modern day, mirrors come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, styles and colours - , coloured mirrors, antique mirrors, metallic, silver gold or black, small, extra large like and even full length. It's easier than ever before to put the mirror at the heart of every room.
