"Field's Chromatography" by George Field is a scientific treatise on colors and pigments used by artists, likely written in the mid-19th century. This work delves deeply into the principles behind color theory, the properties of various pigments, and their applications in art. It serves as a comprehensive reference for artists and chemists alike, exploring both historical and practical dimensions of color creation and usage. The beginning of the treatise sets the stage for an in-depth exploration of coloring as a science, illustrating its ancient roots with references to Egyptian and Assyrian practices. Field discusses the extraordinary durability and brilliance of ancient pigments, emphasizing their importance in the preservation of art over millennia. He presents an intricate analysis of colors and their relationships, laying a foundation for the subsequent examination of individual pigments and their roles in artistic applications. This opening establishes both the historical significance of color in art and the essential principles that artists must understand to effectively wield color in their work.
