MYSTERY OF COLOUR AND HOW WE SOLVED IT (HB)

Long ago, brilliant blues, glittering greens and vibrant reds weren't easy to find - they hid in nature. Artists had to crush beetles, burn bones and even drain sea snails to make their paints. Come on a colourful adventure through history, packed with amazing stories, dazzling illustrations, and iconic artworks from around the world. Written by colour detective and master paint maker David Langridge and with illustrations throughout, this book will invite you to see colour in an entirely new way.
