The sets of plates (plates3 A, B & C) are arranged in sequence to illustrate the phenomenon of Color Blinds. Human beings have realized that they have limitations in viewing all the colors. It has been found that birds have four cones and probably have other visual mechanisms that take the dimensionality of their color to five or six. Hence, the 3-D perception is dependent on the person’s viewing ability. The color blindness normally kills viewing the depth of field and allows seeing things in flat.
