PLATE LVIII
VIEW IN SURREY
Is intended as a contrast to the foregoing Plate, producing, by the effect of a dark sky, a strong light upon the principal object. The colours for the sky are composed of indigo, lake, and ivory black; the distance, indigo finished with the same colour and a little lake. That part of the cottage where the light is strongly reflected, is yellow ochre, with a little burnt sienna mixed in the richer tones; the roof is black and lake, with a little burnt sienna, finished with the same; the shadows and the grey tint upon the timber, indigo and Indian red; the road, with indigo and Indian red also, which is finished with Vandyke brown and lake. The greens for the bank and the bushes are indigo, burnt sienna, and gamboge, completed with indigo and brown pink, and a few touches of Vandyke brown.
