Reflections about Chromaticism (or Piano Rag on a Ragged PIano)

            This is a multi-themed picture, the main ones being colour, reflections*, music, and impermanence...

A splash of colour in the main street of Murtoa, a small country town in the Wimmera, wheat-growing district of Victoria, Australia. 

The piano and the shop have seen better days, but the piano is appealing to be replaced. (On the whole, it would probably prefer to be back in Philadelphia!)

Yellow and blue are RGB complementary, while yellow and purple are RYB complementary, so the three make a sort of chromatic 'chord'.

* A lot of interesting reflecting is also going on here. Apart from the lefthand window reflection, the righthand display area has mirrors in it, and these show reflections of several letters of the alphabet. Some of these are inverted while others are not. There is enough information in the image to explain each case.
