It will be recollected that in our first mention of the projected representation ofthe line of light and shadow we found that it was an angle of 54- 44 of the diagonal of acube. This angle is set out in xi/z on the plan. We have therefore another mode offinding the boundaries of shade and shadow on the moulding, by developing the sections?idiia, bbbb, t\c., as at A, 15, and C, and drawing tangents i/z to the convex mouldings for. </ ??<(? 6( s/V _.,.,, ^
