Three spheres, of equal size but different in aspect, are placed next to each other on a shiny table. The one on the left is made of glass and filled with water, so it is transparent but also reflects. It magnifies the structure of the table top on which it rests and at the same time mirrors a window. The right-hand sphere, with its matt surface, presents a light side and a dark side more clearly than the other two. The attributes of the middle one are the same as those described in connection with (Hand With Reflecting Sphere); the whole of the surrounding area is reflected in it. Furthermore it achieves, in two different ways , a triple unity, for not only does it reflect its companions to the left and right, but all three of them are shown in the drawing on which the artist is working.
