Fear: Leadbeater’s Plate XIV
Repeated grey zigzags cross a tall oval of subdued blue, yellow, pink and green. A faint human outline remains visible within the layered colour. Leadbeater’s accompanying text identifies Plate XIV with fear and describes the bands as a visual suggestion of trembling. The plate gives the book’s historical theosophical account of emotion a different rhythm from the spirals and sharp rays used for anger.
