Colour by Delamare Francois
From the 40000-years-old painted caves at Lascaux and the medieval cloth trade to the synthetic chemistry of modern times, colour making has been central to our lives. This book surveys the history of dyes and pigments, the invention of new colours, and the industries that fuelled them.

Bernard Guineau is an Academic specializing in the history of colour from antiquity to the present. He is also a pioneer in the application of physico-chemical methods to pigments and old dyes.
