Click to enlarge images, for full appreciation of the effects described:

  • A bright view, heavily-framed or observed as through a tunnel, can appear jewel-like and allows appreciation of composition

  • The same view with narrower frame involves the viewer more in the lines of movement in the scene

  • A wide panorama view gives a sense of immersion in the scene

Famous quotes containing the words presenting, view and/or art:

    Every natural fact is a symbol of some spiritual fact. Every appearance in nature corresponds to some state of the mind, and that state of the mind can only be described by presenting that natural appearance as its picture.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The temples, the tank, the jail, the palace, the birds, the carrion, the Guest House, that came into view as they issued from the gap and saw Mau beneath: they didn’t want it, they said in their hundred voices, “No, not yet,” and the sky said, “No, not there.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    The finest works of art are precious, among other reasons, because they make it possible for us to know, if only imperfectly and for a little while, what it actually feels like to think subtly and feel nobly.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
