The Secret Double (Le Double Secret) (1927) | René Magritte | Surrealist Painting | Art Print | Wall Frame

By depicting a man's face bisected to reveal small bells inside, Magritte’s 1927 canvas Le Double secret illustrates this duality. Equally suggestive of this notion is his La Reproduction interdite, from 1937, in which a man, his back turned to the viewer, faces a mirror. Instead of reflecting his face, the viewer sees the image of his back. Compelling the viewer to reconcile the logically inexplicable and impossible, the double here becomes a mode to challenge existing assumptions regarding perceptions of reality. As the subject’s face remains hidden, Magritte here equally alludes to the inaccessibility of the unconscious self.
