Summary

[edit]

from en.wikipedia.org

Bronze Mirror with Celestial symbols.

Bronze Mirror
Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 CE)
Celestial symbols decorate the back of this bronze mirror. Mirrors like these were popular in the Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE), although this one was made several hundred years later.

This picture was taken in July 2004 from an exhibition at Chabot Space & Science Center in Oakland, California. There is a ghostly reflection of a person in front of the glass case holding this exhibit.
