#838c9d HTML / CSS Code Examples

#838c9d foreground

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.

Aristotle
<p style="color: #838c9d">…</p>

#838c9d background

The emotions are sometimes so strong that I work without knowing it. The strokes come like speech.

Vincent Van Gogh
<p style="background-color: #838c9d">…</p>

#838c9d shadow

It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to, the feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.

Vincent Van Gogh
<p style="text-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.15em #838c9d">…</p>
