A light fixture, mountable on a wall, comprises a backing member and a support for a light emitter in front of the backing member, a shade member mountable on the backing member in a position to interfere with at least some of the light rays emanating from the light emitter forwardly of the backing member mounting structure for removably fixing the shade member on the backing member, the shade member comprising a substantially rigid band of forwardly convex and rearwardly concave shape having lateral ends releasably fixed to respective lateral ends of the backing member and having a central portion spaced forwardly of a central portion of the backing member and offset forwardly of the position of the light emitter, the shade member being elastically deformable to allow forcing a temporary resiliently resisted springing apart of its ends, the mounting structure enabling the corresponding lateral ends of the backing member and shade member to establish a releasable snap fit connections therebetween.
