- Solid color, obvious edges, strong contrast of light and shadow, large area of blank space, mainly scene, supplemented by people.
The light in the restaurant changes subtly in this picture. The brightness of the table and the background wall behind the character changes significantly, just right to show the perspective relationship, beyond the restaurant we see the light and street shape at a sharp angle, the light and shadow form the perspective of the restaurant. Light source located on the right side of the screen(only one light source), the concise and generalized expression of the entire screen has a mysterious atmosphere. All the spatial relationships in the picture depend on this restaurant Light source. Actually, the light is very strong. (I always think if the light is soooo strong that you can see every detail, it will be very loneliness. That is why the pub and bedroom use soft and weak light to make a warm atmosphere I think. ) And then, the big area Monotonous color eats the Reverie space. Because it is too simple.
