Fall’s lineup celebrates harvest, foliage and more
By Beth J. Harpaz - Associated Press Writer

By Ralph and Terry Kovel

A silhouette is a shadow portrait. The first known ones, found in ancient caves, are black outlines of animals that look like shadows on the wall. Cut-paper silhouettes were popular in the 18th century. They were not as expensive or time-consuming as an oil portrait, so they were favored as a quick record of the family. Some artists had the help of a special chair that used a candle to throw a shadow of the subject onto plain white paper. The shadow likeness was then traced and cut.
