L.2013.6.4 h: Shadows, plate 8 from Revolving Doors
VIII. Shadows: If three beams of light be thrown on an object from different angles, or if the object were turned on three different angles simultaneously in relation to a single beam of light, the resulting shadows would assume various proportions although their character would remain the same. In the same way, if a form be invested with three colors at the same time and viewed from different angles, three distinct characters would result. They could be seen, however, only by imagination.
