What's the difference between a cast shadow and a form shadow? Why do shadows become increasingly important in Western art? Can we only ever see shadows, not objects themselves, as Plato claimed? In this beautiful pocket book, printmaker and History of Art Professor William Vaughan presents the history of shadows, from their emergence in the visual arts to their association with death and the subconscious. Get ready! You may never look at the world the same way again!
