"The Mirror" (also known as "Girl with a Mirror") is a notable painting by the American Impressionist artist Edmund Charles Tarbell. Created in 1908, this work exemplifies Tarbell's mastery in capturing the subtleties of light and his keen interest in domestic interior scenes, a hallmark of his oeuvre. Tarbell, a prominent member of the Boston School of painters, was renowned for his ability to blend the techniques of French Impressionism with a distinctly American sensibility, and "The Mirror" is a quintessential example of this synthesis.

The painting depicts a young woman, elegantly dressed, gazing into a mirror. The composition is characterized by its serene and contemplative mood, with the subject's introspective pose inviting viewers to ponder the nature of self-reflection and identity. The use of light in the painting is particularly striking; Tarbell employs a soft, diffused light that bathes the scene in a warm glow, enhancing the sense of intimacy and tranquility. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the delicate rendering of textures, from the sheen of the woman's dress to the polished surface of the mirror.

"The Mirror" reflects Tarbell's deep appreciation for the works of the Old Masters, particularly the Dutch painters of the 17th century, whose influence can be seen in the composition's harmonious balance and the subtle interplay of light and shadow. At the same time, the painting's modern sensibility is conveyed through its impressionistic brushwork and the emphasis on capturing a fleeting moment of quiet introspection.

This painting is housed in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, where it continues to be celebrated as a significant work within Tarbell's artistic legacy. "The Mirror" not only showcases Tarbell's technical prowess but also offers a poignant glimpse into the private, contemplative moments of early 20th-century American life.
