Faded Gold: The Only Highlight

A set of dull gold. It appears on picture frames, mirror frames, candlesticks, and door handles, but the color is an oxidized deep dark gold, close to bronze; under low light, only the edges directly illuminated by light show a metallic feel, the rest blending into the dark background. The total area of these gold elements is very small, scattered at different depths in the image. Avoid: using bright gilding and electroplated gold, making the gold area too large, making the gold a new shiny surface, stacking gold elements in multiple locations.

一組暗淡的金色。它出現在畫框、鏡框、燭台與門把上,但顏色是氧化後的深暗金,接近古銅;在低照度下只有被光直接照到的邊緣才顯出金屬感,其餘融進暗色的背景。這些金的總面積很小,分散在畫面的不同深度。避免:使用明亮的鍍金與電鍍金、讓金色的面積過大、把金色做成新的閃亮表面、在多個位置堆疊金色元素。
