The history of art is inseparable from the history of color. And what a fascinating story they tell together: one that brims with an all-star cast of characters, eye-opening details, and unexpected detours through the annals of human civilization and scientific discovery. Enter critically acclaimed writer and popular journalist Victoria Finlay, who here takes readers across the globe and over the centuries on an unforgettable tour through the brilliant history of color in art. Written for newcomers to the subject and aspiring young artists alike, Finlay's quest to uncover the origins and science of color will beguile readers of all ages with its warm and conversational style. Her rich narrative is illustrated in full color throughout with 166 major works of art-most from the collections of the J. Paul Getty Museum. Readers of this book will revel in a treasure trove of fun-filled facts and anecdotes. Were it not for Cleopatra, for instance, purple might not have become the royal color of the Western world. Without Napoleon, the black graphite pencil might never have found its way into the hands of Cézanne. Without mango-eating cows, the sunsets of Turner might have lost their shimmering glow. And were it not for the pigment cobalt blue, the halls of museums worldwide might still be filled with forged Vermeers.

Dit is het verslag van de ontdekkingsreis van de auteur door de wereld van de kleuren. Zij vertelt over Afghaanse strijders die hun wapentuig financieren met hetzelfde ultramarijn dat Titiaan gebruikte in de zestiende eeuw. Ze bezoekt een afgelegen dorpje in Midden-Amerika, waar de vrouwen hun jurken nog altijd verven met de tranen van zeeslakken. Ze ontdekt dat George Washington zich drukker maakte om de groene kleur van zijn woonkamer dan om belangrijke regeringsaangelegenheden, en waarom Whistler ziek werd nadat hij zijn Symphony in white had geschilderd. Kleur is een fascinerende en onderhoudende biografie van de kleuren, geschreven met een enorme nieuwsgierigheid en gedrevenheid. Het is een geschiedenis van de pogingen van mensen overal ter wereld om, met behulp van planten, stenen en zelfs kleine kevers, de regenboog te reproduceren - en van de impact die dat heeft gehad op de wereld.
