"Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror" is a poem by John Ashbery that explores themes of identity, perception, and self-reflection. The title refers to a specific painting by the artist Parmigianino, creating a complex interplay between visual art and poetic expression. Ashbery's work is known for its fragmented narrative and innovative use of language, inviting readers to reconsider traditional notions of selfhood and representation.
The mirror in this case is a convex mirror, as virtual images are formed by convex mirrors.
The image formed by the convex mirror is virtual, erect and diminished.
A concave mirror curves inward in the middle, while a convex mirror curves outward in the middle.
A convex mirror forms a virtual, upright, and diminished image of the object placed in front of it. The image is also located behind the mirror.
A convex lens is more like a concave mirror in the way it produces images. A convex lens converges light rays to form real or virtual images, much like how a concave mirror can do the same by reflecting light. Both convex lenses and concave mirrors can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the lens or mirror.

The mirror in this case is a convex mirror, as virtual images are formed by convex mirrors.
it is a convex mirror as it produces diverging waves
since the convex mirror is curved outwards the the focus is behind the mirror
