Dumb question




Why would an art critic (gallery owner) look at the surface of a painting at an angle? I mean a very sharp angle, almost skipping across the image sidewise under a very bright light. This happened to me today, she said "The Rose" was "beautifully executed" after this inspection. What was she looking for?
