Thanks for the link. I didn't agree with some of the conclusions. The barmaid is standing square on looking directly at the painter. Her reflection should be almost directly behind her, maybe slightly to the right. The reflection of the chef should be almost directly behind him, maybe slightly off to the left. I didn't do that as it would have spoiled the look of the picture. Artistic licence.



The other possibility is that the reflected barmaid is actually a different barmaid and it’s a double-sided bar. That would explain how the beer bottle second from left is reflected in a different position.

Or perhaps he just needs his artistic licence revoked.

I see what you mean, but cannot see where the two bars join. I think he was taking liberties which didn't work out so he abandoned the picture as being unbelievable.
