It is often said that the pleasure of form as contrasted with that of color is
an intellectual pleasure arising from the perception of relations (unity in
variety, proportion, etc.). In a sense this is true, for, as I hope to show in
the course of this essay, the appreciation of form as compared with the
enjoyment of color is saturated, so to speak, with the more refined sort of
intellectual activity. But the fact that certain varieties of the arts of
form, more especially outline drawing, dispense with the pleasure of color,
and even with that of light and shade, suggests that the pleasure of visual
form includes a sensuous element as well as an intellectual. It will be my
special aim in this paper to bring out this somewhat neglected factor in
visual gratification, and to indicate, so far as it is possible, its
importance among the several factors, which together compose what we call
beauty of form.
