Van Eyck portrayed himself as a witness to the wedding of Giovanni Arnolfini and his young wife in the mirror in this painting. Here, the painted mirror is replaced with a monitor, which is connected to a hidden camera. The spectators see themselves in the mirror and are witnesses, like they can be witnesses to basically anything in the age of media.
