René Magritte - The betrayal of the pictures

The Treachery of Images is also known as this is not a pipe and the wind and the song. The painting is sometimes cited as an example of a meta news that is conveyed by parasional language, similar to Denis Diderots This is not a history. An interpretation says that the pipe on the painting is not a pipe, but rather a drawing of a pipe.
