If form shadow is correct but cast shadow on ground is absent which illusion weakens?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Object resting on surface
A cast shadow on the ground indicates that the object is in contact with a surface and also suggests the direction of light. Form shadow can show the object’s volume, but without a cast shadow the object may appear to float. Symbolic colour meaning, decorative pattern, and bilateral symmetry do not establish contact with the ground. Exam tip: look for a cast shadow near the contact area to judge whether an object appears grounded.
