Voor de spiegel is a 1941 unspecified by Jan de Smedt, held at Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp.
This painting depicts a nude woman standing with her back to the viewer. Her arms are raised above her head, and her hands are placed behind her head. The woman's body is rendered in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the contours of her figure. The background of the painting is dark and muted, which serves to emphasize the woman's form. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the woman is lost in thought. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the painting, drawing the viewer's eye to the woman's figure.
