In which condition will a form's surface plane be read incorrectly?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The tone does not match the direction of that plane
The correct answer is A because the eye reads a surface plane partly through the value or tone assigned to it. When the tone contradicts the plane’s direction—for example, a plane turned away from the light is made unusually bright—the structure may appear to bend, tilt, or change orientation incorrectly. Option B is a useful indication because an edge can clarify where one plane changes into another. Option C normally supports correct reading when the plane faces the light, and option D normally supports it when the plane turns away. Accurate shading is therefore not random colouring; it is a visual explanation of the form’s planes, light direction, and volume.
