Washington, DC - unreality

The just-complete renovation of the East wing of the National gallery of art has a polished chrome sheet of metal on one wall reflecting all passersby.

One figure is only painted on the mirror and all visitors contribute their own reflections to her's.  It presents a nice view of some some of the surroundings.  One of the real humans is my sister.






  The building in the background with the pillars is the new (1989 actually) Canadian embassy. The building close-up and also taken as a whole is a genuine beauty from a country rarely known for innovative and striking architecture.
