mise en abîme 46
Mise en abîme ("put in the abyss", in the sense of infinity) is a French voice for a design in heraldry or blaszoning where a shield is repeated drawn within the same shield, which in turn also has the same drawing, and which continues to be repeated with a recursion effect. The concept was taken up by art, especially film and theatre, where it is used more as a mise en abyme. See droste effect.
