Which option correctly states the difference between contour and cross-contour of form?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Contour is outer boundary, cross-contour shows surface direction

The governing concept is the distinction between boundary description and surface description. A contour is the outer edge or apparent boundary that separates the form from the surrounding space. A cross-contour is a line, implied or drawn, that travels across the surface and follows its turning, curvature, or directional flow. Cross-contours help an artist understand and communicate volume, even when the outer silhouette remains unchanged. Therefore option A is correct. Option B wrongly reduces both ideas to a frame. Option C is false because cross-contour usually strengthens the perception of three-dimensional structure rather than making it flat. Option D confuses contour with surface direction; that function belongs primarily to cross-contour.
