Appreciating multi-figure paintings requires understanding how characters relate through subtle cues like gaze alignment, gesture, and spatial arrangement. We present MIRAGE, an evidence-centric framework designed to scaffold the exploration of these "micro-interactions" in multi-figure artworks. While such cues are essential for deep narrative appreciation, they are often distributed across complex scenes and difficult for viewers to systematically identify. Existing vision-language models (VLMs) frequently fail to provide reliable assistance, offering ungrounded interpretations that lack traceable visual evidence. MIRAGE addresses this by constructing a structured intermediate representation capturing identities, pose cues, and gaze hypotheses. However, the challenge extends beyond extracting these cues to coordinating them during interpretation. Without an explicit mechanism to organize and reconcile relational evidence, models often collapse multiple interaction hypotheses into a single unstable or weakly grounded narrative, even when low-level signals are available. This representation allows users to verify how high-level interpretations are anchored in low-level visual facts. By separating spatial grounding from narrative generation, MIRAGE enables users to inspect and reason about figure-to-figure relationships through a verifiable evidence layer. We evaluate MIRAGE against painting-only VLM baselines using a blind assessment protocol. Results show that MIRAGE significantly improves identity consistency, reduces relational hallucinations, and increases the coverage of subtle interactions. These findings suggest that structured grounding can serve as a critical interaction control layer, providing the necessary scaffolding for a more reliable, transparent, and human-led understanding of complex visual narratives.
