This is not a paintin'!!

I was in Piccadilly today and visited the Royal Academy of Arts. Outside in the courtyard they had a nice steel ball-like sculpture, it was concave on the inside with a brushed steel appearance, and convex on the outside with a mottled, hammered and reflective finish.

This was the reflection of its outside, and you can see part of itself in the reflection too.
