THE BRIDE!
Marcel Duchamp's "The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors" glass installation represents the relationship between the bachelors, and, obviously, the bride. Oil paint, varnish, lead foil, lead wire, and dust on two glass plates, each mounted between two glass panels in a steel and wood frame. Notes describe the encounter between a bride, and her nine bachelors, while simply looking at the piece with no guidance, you'd be lost. Even with the notes, its difficult to draw a conclusion about your opinion on the piece. It apparently goes through processes of courting the bride, etc.
