Is there a mythological precedent for the literary trope of mirrors/paintings trapping people?

What it says on the tin. I'm writing a short story about mythology and wanted to use the trope of someone getting trapped in a painting or mirror but Google wasn't exactly being helpful in finding a mythological connection to this trope. I was wondering if it existed in mythology, religion, folk tales, etc or if it was a more modern trope

First pride out and on T

It's my first pride month out as trans and officially on my medical transition and also learned that I'm intersex! I've been on T since November and while it's slow going it's coming along. Hope other trans people on this sub can have a happy pride too!

the playable characters of pathologic look like they released one incredible minimal synth EP together in 1981 before breaking up and becoming barbers or mail clerks
