Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Chemistry of Pigments
The authors have in the following pages endeavoured to indicate the chemical relationships, composition and properties of most of the better-known pigments. During recent years they have given a great deal of attention to the examination of painters' colours, and have from time to time found some difficulty in obtaining reliable information on the subject. This led to a considerable amount of work in obtaining and examining specimens of pigments, and it was felt that the information thus gained might usefully be published.
