What is the difference between positive and negative space?

What is the difference between positive and negative space?
In art, positive space contains the image that is intended as the focus of the piece of art, usually two- dimensional, as in a photograph, painting, etching or the like rather than sculpture. Negative space is the space around what the artist wants you to see. Negative space can be empty or, conversely, it can be filled with images that draw your eye toward the intended focus of the overall image.
