To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
• •••••, Light-and'Shade. — Night and day, light and dark, sun and shade are opposing forces. Antithetic cal, they counteract and restrain each other ; com- plementary, they emphasize and relieve each other.
Each shade is a light to a darker shade ; each light is a shade to a higher light A gray is a light to a brown ; an orange is a shadow to a yellow. Each acts as a foil for the other, and by the continual play of change and interchange are we enabled to distinguish in space the things of the... visible world about us. Without shade all things would be flat and formless ; a cock of hay would be no thicker than a knife-blade, a forest would be merely a thin silhouette against the sky. Without light not only the problem of painting, but the problem of life it- self would be a great deal more perplexing than we at present find it light-and-shade, or, as it is sometimes called, chiaroscuro, is in painting a means whereby objects Digitized by Google 92 ART FOR art's SAKE are cast in relief upon flat surface and made to as* Bume the appearance of reality.
