Piano Mirror Illusion Category: Shadows and Mirrors | Added: May 25, 2009 | 17 comments This impressive illusion by Shigeo Fukuda is sure to boggle the mind. On the right we can see a strange structure made out of various piano parts and shapes, yet when viewed in the mirror on the left the reflection is of a completely normal looking piano.

Posted by on April 27, 2010 That was just so cool. It sure must have took a long time to accomplish.

Posted by me on May 26, 2010 The illusion works because the parts are arranged in such a way so as to produce the reflection of a perfect piano when seen from one specific viewpoint. Move anywhere else and the reflection won't work
Posted by ABBIE on June 25, 2010 that was so cool!
Posted by Mario on July 11, 2010 This is fake it is a normal wall and they painted a piano on it so it is fake.
Posted by Rog on August 26, 2010 The reflection isn't quite "perfect". The issue is with the shadows that are cast. One can see by the shadow cast by the stool onto the rug that there is a single light source. None of the shadows in the reflection fall within the same perspective lines. Awesome work of perspective however!

Posted by hey on January 14, 2011 There's a face in the reflection of the piano...
Posted by jusme on February 27, 2011 it must be a broken down piano on one side with a see through wall and a brand new piano on the other but is set up so that the shadows are seen the same
Posted by bennyboo2005 on April 22, 2011 hey hey i think that is a whale
Posted by tattyteddy on April 23, 2011 Amazing at first but if you look carefully the shadows of the reflection are in the wrong places! Lol, awesome though! I'm just being picky, must've taken a lot of time and effort. It was worth it as well!
