Présentation de l'éditeur

Shadows on the Wall there is nothing more easy, but to reduce this to an art there must be called into play much practice and ingenuity. The following eight positions of the hand and fingers being exercised, will give to the beginner very valuable assistance :T he most convenient distance of the light from the hands is four feet, and about six feet from the hands to the wall or screen on to which the shadows are to be thrown. It will often be found necessary, in order to gain a desirable effect, to turn the hands a little to the right or to the left. Many persons use lime-light, which affords a good bold shadow if the chalk be cut in triangular form ;otherwise, it is apt to cast a grey border round the edge of the shadow.
