The Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci — Complete · Chapter 228Of Dark Leaves in Front of Transparent Ones
This chapter is not translated yet. You are reading the original.
When the leaves are interposed between the light and the eye, then that which is nearest to the eye will be the darkest, and the most distant will be the lightest, not being seen against the atmosphere; and this is seen in the leaves which are away from the centre of the tree, that is towards the light.
