QUÉ SIGNIFICA SILHOUETTE EN INGLÉS

Silueta

Silhouette

Una silueta es la imagen de una persona, de un animal, de un objeto o de una escena representada como una forma sólida de un solo color, generalmente negro, sus aristas que coinciden con el contorno del sujeto. El interior de una silueta es sin rasgos, y el conjunto se presenta típicamente sobre un fondo claro, generalmente blanco, o ninguno en absoluto. La silueta difiere de un contorno que representa el borde de un objeto en una forma lineal, mientras que una silueta aparece como una forma sólida. Las imágenes de la silueta pueden ser creadas en cualquier medio artístico visual, pero el término describe normalmente los pedazos de papel cortado, que entonces fueron pegados a un forro en un color que ponía contraste, ya menudo enmarcado. Los retratos cortantes, generalmente de perfil, de la tarjeta negra se hicieron populares a mediados del siglo XVIII, aunque el término "silueta" era rara vez usado hasta las primeras décadas del siglo XIX, y la tradición ha continuado con este nombre en el siglo XXI. Representaban una alternativa barata pero efectiva a la miniatura de retrato, y los artistas especialistas calificados podían cortar un retrato del busto de alta calidad, con mucho el estilo más común, en cuestión de minutos, trabajando simplemente a simple vista.

A silhouette is the image of a person, animal, object or scene represented as a solid shape of a single colour, usually black, its edges matching the outline of the subject. The interior of a silhouette is featureless, and the whole is typically presented on a light background, usually white, or none at all. The silhouette differs from an outline which depicts the edge of an object in a linear form, while a silhouette appears as a solid shape. Silhouette images may be created in any visual artistic media, but the term normally describes pieces of cut paper, which were then stuck to a backing in a contrasting colour, and often framed. Cutting portraits, generally in profile, from black card became popular in the mid-18th century, though the term “silhouette” was seldom used until the early decades of the 19th century, and the tradition has continued under this name into the 21st century. They represented a cheap but effective alternative to the portrait miniature, and skilled specialist artists could cut a high-quality bust portrait, by far the most common style, in a matter of minutes, working purely by eye.
