The opening of the work sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of color, introducing the author’s intent to share his observations and hypotheses about how colors interact within the natural world. The text begins with a discussion on the distinctions between primary and secondary qualities of bodies, emphasizing that colors arise through various combinations of simple elements.
