Colour gives physical landscapes that final dimension of real life.... Spring blossoms and fresh green leaves, after the cold barrenness of winter, herald a new season of vitality and fun. After the deep and stable green of summer, fall colours mark a last resurgence of liveliness before the winter barrenness sets in again. The apparent sizes and forms of landscape spaces change with each such seasonal change : bright colours advance, dull colours recede, changing apparent distances. 2, record 6, English, - seasonal%20change

[...] on peut retenir que les arbres à feuilles persistantes et le décor minéral reflètent la permanence, et que les arbres à feuilles caduques donnent le rythme des saisons (leur ombrage est souvent plus agréable que celui des résineux et la coloration de leur feuillage ou le lacis de leurs branches en hiver sont aussi des éléments en leur faveur). 2, record 6, French, - variation%20saisonni%C3%A8re
