Abstract
Surrealist’s quest for absolute reality anchored around the relation between the reality and its representation. They were well awarded that the Real and the reality are mutually differing from one another. Although the Real exceeds the rational comprehension, it exists in and reveals itself from the reality. Surrealists’ works of art are the elusive snapshots of the Real. The irrational aspect it produces is the manifestation of the Real fused with reality. Rene Magritte understood this aspect of scurrility in terms of mystery. He interpreted this mystery is not one of the aspect of it but it is the innate character of the reality to exist. He discloses this mystery in his paintings by exposing the arbitrariness lies between the reality and representation, image and object and word and meaning. This article brings forth the play of mystery in the domain of reality and its revelation from Magritte's three distinguished series of painting
