  source through shades of gray to the deepest
  black shadows.

• How we perceive the tone of an object depends on
  its actual surface lightness or darkness, color
  and texture, the background and lighting.

  denote the major planes of an object realist
  artists use 'local tone' to accurately denote
  subtle changes within the plane.
