The first part studies the emergence and evolution of the full-length mirror, and puts forward a bold idea through the historical records of the Chinese palace in the 18th century and the representation of mirror screens in literature, painting, and architecture: the full-length mirror is a joint creation of the East and the West - Europe provided the large glass mirror, and China The object "mirror screen" is deduced from its screen tradition; the following section focuses on a broader phenomenon that occurred in the 19th century, that is, after photography was invented in the first half of the 19th century, The use of full-length mirrors in photography and its impact on optimized image distribution.
