 and the jar a warm grey or biscuit colour, the effect would have been 

 infinitely more pleasing to the eye ; because, not only would the richer 

 colouring have acted as an agreeable contrast to the delicate purity of 

 the flowers, but the presence of warmth and colour in the surroundings 

 would have cast reflections of warmth into the shadows of the flowers 

 themselves.

 training to see form and effect applies with equal force to colour.
