| Commentary | Lotario observes a man (Leonela's lover) leaving Camila's house.
Vierge's style is absolutely masterly; his figures are detailed and real, full of life; remarkable setting too. Notice the perfect use of light and shadow, halftones and shading. Usual in Vierge's illustrations, some element in black creates a worth noting contrast. His short and fine drawing lines imitate etching. |
| Notes | 1 - Vierge's original drawings (Chinese ink and wash) were reproduced by photogravure (notice the plate mark); the specific technique used, heliogravure, allows an excellent reproduction both of the original wash halftones and of the lines. |
