Description
A chromatic odyssey across four centuries and over 350 images of luscious wheels and globes, painstakingly collated charts, and meticulous diagrams, many of them photographed exclusively for this edition. Seminal works of colour theory are shown alongside rare and unfamiliar contributions, including the theosophical colour systems of Charles Webster Leadbeater and Annie Besant, the comprehensive colour ‘dictionary’ of Aloys John Maerz and Morris Rea Paul, and the patchwork combinations of the Japanese costume designer and artist Sanzo Wada.
