Eyes in a Portrait.

If a persons picture is taken with
the eyes of the person looking direct
" into the lens or opening OF the
camera then the eyes in the picture
will always be directly on and ap-
pear to follow whoever is looking at
it. This Is also true of paintings. If
subject being painted Is posed so
as to look directly at the painter
and the artist paints the picture with
the eyes so pointed then the eyes OF
the picture will follow you. When
you are looking at a picture OF a
person and the eyes do not follow
you you will know at once that he
was not looking at the camera or
artist when the picture was being
taken or painted.
