More Information

This lithograph displays Don Eddy's peculiar trait of combining three spatial planes into one. In truth, neither the human eye nor the camera lens can simultaneously focus upon the window surface, the image behind it, and the foreground reflected in the window, as Eddy has done in this work. As a result, he has created a final image that seems to approach reality and yet negates it.
