Excerpt from Colour: A Handbook of the Theory of Colour
The subject of colour is one of considerable interest, more especially to artists, painters, dyers, calico printers, and others who use colour or colours in their everyday work. Such persons have considerable practical experience in the mixing and application of colours for various purposes painting, dyeing and printing of textile fabrics, etc. but they will no doubt have met with, from time to time, curious effects of mixing the various colours together. To such persons a knowledge of the theory of colour, its cause and production, and a succinct account of the phenomena which occur on mixing colours together in various ways, will be of interest. In the following pages it has been the authors endeavour to present such matters as clearly as possible, and, while keeping in mind the latest investigations in the field of colour, particular attention has been paid to the requirements of the practical man, an explanation being given of the results which are obtained by mixing various dyes and pigments together, phenomena which occur every day to the dyer and painter.
