<p>[QUOTE="sunday silence, post: 2208387, member: 6808"]It almost has to be a canvas that you're looking at and not a photo reproduction. Its easy to see why youre confused because the key when looking for a photo reproduction is that the rosettes (hexagon pattern) are of uniform size. The hexagon pattern here is also uniform, but if we were seeing it in real life we'd notice the texture of the paint immediately and so this sort of problem doesnt occur when studying things up close. But here with just pics. its confusing. In photo reproduction each rosette will hold just one primary color e.g. red. Just like the little pixels you see on your TV screen. They combine these colored dots in ways to produce the other colors. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Google rosettes and photo reproduction and you will probably find some better examples of photo reproduction, with experience it will be easier to spot.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
