This ad for glass cleaner is humorous, clever, and effective. The literal components show a magician “levitating” a female in a rather classic magic trick. However, with the addition of the cleaner in the bottom right, the symbolic content implies that there is a table underneath her; one that has been cleaned so thoroughly (presumably) with the cleaner that it can’t be seen, thus showcasing the effectiveness of the product.
