I know I have said this before, but I have a Hindu Waddell portrait and the blue honestly appears much lighter than the other examples I have had in terms of the backs (almost a powder blue compared to a royal blue). Based on this experience, to me, it is not just the reds that have this characteristic when it comes to Hindu.

No clue why this happens, or why American Beauty's are truly more narrow, or why a lot of Tolstoi's seem to have wet sheet transfers on the front etc. etc., but I would love to know why these things occur.

I do not think our eyes are playing tricks on us.
