Darken the frame.

It was a bright gilt on a dark page and read as a lamp — the frame was the first thing the eye went to, ahead of the puzzle it surrounds. Everything is now pitched below the silhouette's own contrast:

before after
flat #e6c184 → #4d3317 #a8854a → #261a0b
reeding highlight .15 / shadow .13 highlight .10 / shadow .20
bevel lit edge .42 .26
rebate rgba(46,30,14,.9) rgba(22,14,5,.95)

The carving gains depth, not just darkness

The lit layer is filled with a linearGradient rather than split into a second and third copy of every polygon. Same tonal range for a couple of hundred bytes instead of another ~25 KB of points, and it gives the whole frame a consistent lit-from-the-top-left reading with the shadow gathering into the bottom right. The file is 51 KB, slightly smaller than before.

The ?v= stamp is bumped with it — which is the entire point of having added one last time, given the 30-day asset cache.

Note

A scripted replace failed its assertion on the way in (I searched for * Bronze… where the file had /* Bronze…). Nothing was written, because the asserts run before the write. That's the discipline I said I'd adopt after two silent no-matches earlier, working as intended.

Darken the frame.

It was a bright gilt on a dark page and read as a lamp: the frame was the
first thing the eye went to, ahead of the puzzle it surrounds. Everything
is now pitched below the silhouette's own contrast — the flat is darker,
the reeding leans on its shadow rather than its highlight, the bevel's lit
edges are about half what they were, and the rebate is deeper.

The carving gains real depth rather than just losing brightness. Its lit
layer is filled with a gradient instead of being split into a second and
third copy of every polygon, which buys the same tonal range for a couple
of hundred bytes rather than another twenty-five kilobytes of points, and
gives the whole frame a consistent lit-from-the-top-left reading with the
shadow gathering into the bottom right.

The version stamp is bumped with it, which is now the point of having one.
