Quotation from: The Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci

Written by: Leonardo da Vinci


Of several colours, all equally white, that will look whitest which
is against the darkest background. And black will look intensest
against the whitest background.


And red will look most vivid against the yellowest background; and
the same is the case with all colours when surrounded by their
strongest contrasts.


On the reflection of colours (281-283).
