Quotation from: The Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci

Written by: Leonardo da Vinci


Shadows of various colours, as affected by the lights falling on
them. That light which causes the shadow does not face it.


[Footnote: In the original diagram we find in the circle _e_
"_giallo_" (yellow) and the cirle _d_ "_azurro"_ (blue) and also
under the circle of shadow to the left "_giallo_" is written and
under that to the right "_azurro_".


In the second diagram where four circles are placed in a row we find
written, beginning at the left hand, "_giallo_" (yellow), "_azurro_"
(blue), "_verde_" (green), "_rosso_" (red).]
