'Mirror, Mirror, on the Wall' is from Snow White, and the other lines at the bottom, 'proud to have received upon...' are from 'The Mirror in the Hall', another Cavafy poem which I loved, because the idea of making a mirror have feelings is a wonderful poetic idea that strongly appeals to me.' (David Hockney by David Hockney, Thames & Hudson, London, 1974, p. 64)
