During my recent museum visits, I paid attention to values. Distance also steals values.

A more distant object will have a narrow range of values. It may be a brightly lit object, or it may be in shadow, but it will not have a full range of values, while the main subject often does.

Sometimes this device is used on closer objects, not to convey distance, but to de-emphasize them.
