Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting | | Italian term or phrase: risplendere in basso ciò che è in alto | L'artista aggiunge al frutto lucenti scintille, *facendo risplendere in basso ciò che è in alto*.
Unfortunately no picture is available, so I can't see how it actually looks like. I'm looking for a neutral translation that can fit it anyway. Any suggestion is welcome. |

At art school I learned that you show the way light is reflected off an object with dabs of white (or by leaving the paper/canvas exposed). The source of light (whether artificial, or natural illumination coming from a window) would normally be above the fruit if it's placed, say, on the table.
