The image plates, pair of images and mirrors of the Deville plotter. Deville instructed the mirroring to be "light". The mirrors have only a thin layer of silvering. this means that the mirrors are reflective, but they also let some light through. This means that you see the reflected drawings; but that the plotter's pin-prick of light shines through from behind.
