Because the majority of humans are right-handed, the light source in pictures is often placed in the upper left. Since the same is true for drawing, less than 80% of Western paintings are drawn with left lighting (Sun & Perona, 1998). Thus, we propose the following hypotheses: 1) Due to mere exposure effect, paintings drawn with left lighting may be preferred regardless of the scene. However, since many pictures are drawn with a left light source, the left-light paintings may give a natural impression and fit scenes of everyday life (e.g. Vermeer’s paintings), while right-lighting painting may give an unnatural impression and better suit extraordinary or surreal scenes (e.g. Chirico’s paintings). Thus 2) in paintings depicting natural scenes, left-lighting may be preferred and judged to be appropriate. In paintings depicting surreal or unusual scenes, right lighting may be preferred and judged to be more suitable. Using paintings that can be easily specified the direction of the light direction, taking into account the situation depicted in the scene and hand dominance, we examined preference for paintings and suitability of lighting direction. Results of the paired comparison supported both the hypothesis of left-lighting preference and the hypothesis of the scene-dependence. Results of the rating scale, however, (excluding left-lighting preference), were inconsistent with those of paired comparison. As paired comparison is a method in which direction of the light source is easy to be conscious and subtle difference in impression is also easy to reflect, we argued that the study showed not only the left-lighting preference but also the scene-dependent effect of suitable lighting direction. |
