A silhouette is an image of a person, an animal, an object, or a scene that is represented as a solid shape of a single color, typically black. It lacks features and is usually presented on a light background, often white or with nothing behind it at all. Silhouettes can be drawn, painted, or cut out using black paper. However, the term used to describe pieces of cut paper that were attached to a contrasting background and often framed.
剪影是一种以单一颜色（通常为黑色）的实心形状展现出人物、动物、物体或场景的图像。它没有细节特征且通常呈现在浅色的背景上，通常是白色或根本没有任何背景。剪影可以绘制、涂制或使用黑纸剪出轮廓。然而，这个词过去曾用来指黏在对比鲜明的背景上且通常会裱框的剪纸作品。
