It looks like a prism, with one glass plane seen through another. In Ibsen's Hedda Gabler " directed by Anna Mackmin " the morning sun is initially shining in at the windows of the Norwegian villa where the newlyweds are ensconced, post-honeymoon. Paradoxically airy yet claustrophobic, Hedda's drawing room abuts her academic husband George's study, which is a kind of interior conservatory.
