		In the portrait is the oval of the young girl's face, and the features of her face include the ovals of her eyes.
		In "The Oval Portrait" one movement encompasses the motion of the narrator's attention from the turret, to the catalogue's iterative gloss, to the arabesque frame, to the oval face in the portrait, to the flamelike eye of the face.
		The "true secret" of the portrait's effect, then, is to some degree revealed in the artist's ambiguous exclamation but is more fully embodied in the cryptic design of "The Oval Portrait." This design exhibits a remarkable resemblance to a mandala or yantra, which may serve as an illuminating paradigm for the structure of the tale.

	Poe, "Oval Portrait"

		But at length, as the labor drew nearer to its conclusion, there were admitted none into the turret; for the painter had grown wild with the ardor of his work, and turned his eyes from canvas merely, even to regard the countenance of his wife.

	The Oval Portrait a Short Story by Edgar Allen Poe
		That I now saw aright I could not and would not doubt; for the first flashing of the candles upon that canvas had seemed to dissipate the dreamy stupor which was stealing over my senses, and to startle me at once into waking life.
		It was a mere head and shoulders, done in what is technically termed a vignette manner; much in the style of the favourite heads of Sully.
		But at length, as the labour drew nearer to its conclusion, there were admitted none into the turret; for the painter had grown wild with the ardour of his work, and turned his eyes from canvas merely, even to regard the countenance of his wife.

	Edgar Allan Poe's The Oval Portrait \| Plot \| MTV Movies
		This low-budget Mexican production (originally produced for television) is a tepid but fairly accurate adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's tale, set during the Civil War.
		The story involves a young woman haunted by the vengeful spirit of a young bride, whose soul had been trapped for decades within the woman's portrait (painted by her insane husband).
		The occasionally rich period atmosphere is flattened almost completely by sluggish pacing, badly-dubbed (and equally dull) dialogue, and an insolvent ending which may lead the viewer to believe the filmmakers have lost a few pages of Poe's original text.
