The Portrait in Three


Dimensions (continued)


This portrait, which is also a profile, achieves its sculptural illusion of form with more or less two tones—one that represents
the light and one that represents the shadow. The strength of contrast of the tones clearly separates the front from the side of
the face. The level of realism comes from the accuracy of these shapes rather than detail.
