... The formation of multiple images of a distant quasar by the gravitational lensing effect of a foreground galaxy may be very simply, and faithfully, accounted for by a wine glass experiment. Figure 1. In the wine glass experiment, a bright compact light source (at the top of the photo) serves as a distant quasar. The wine glass on the table distorts the light rays from the "quasar" and produces a caustic having with a triangular shape (see enlargement in Figure 3 ). ...
