The configuration of images in mirrors is a mystery that physics solves easily.
However, mirrors are the key elements of another phenomenon not covered by science but as sure as the reflection of light: a broken mirror announces unavoidable misfortunes.
The landscapes of bad luck are made by stacking broken glasses on a reflective surface. These jinxed landscapes, are so only in appearance, because the fear of imminent misfortunes prevented me from breaking real mirrors to create them.
