### Motivation
I have a lot of pictures hanging on the walls in my house and spotlights to illuminate them. The spotlights emit a fairly broad beam and also illuminate much of the surrounding wall, ceiling and sofa.
I wanted to improve the contrast and look of the pictures and reduce light going to the surrounding.
### Principle
The idea is to calculate a lamp shade geometry that would cut off light at the edges of a picture given the geometry and relationship between the spotlight and the picture frame.
You will need:
1. size of the picture in mm (width, height)
2. distance of the spotlight center from the wall
3. distance of the spotlight center from the top of the picture frame
4. relative point where the center of the spotlight is pointing (center of the picture by default)
### How to make it
You will need CadQuery to generate a custom shade for your picture and room. Download and install according to their instruction. (https://cadquery.readthedocs.io/en/l
