Index: colour of shadows on opaque bodies, ch. 701-718
Chapter list of the fifth part on the true and false colour of shadows, flesh-tones, and even light.
A table-of-contents leaf of the Codex Urbinas listing chapter headings 701 to 718, with cross-references to the leaves where each is treated; the running head reads 'Quinta' with the folio number 321. The page opens with the word 'indiscernible', completing the previous leaf's heading (700). The entries treat the true and false colour of shadows on opaque bodies, how objects tint white surfaces with their likeness, the shadows of faces and their flesh-tones, and on which surfaces the true and even light is found.

Shadows of faces, flesh-tones, and recognizing form
Headings 709 to 718 treat which objects around flesh make its shadows match its lights (709), the shadows of faces passing through wet streets (710), why the true forms of any bounded body are recognized (716), and on which surfaces the true and even light is found (718).
