One of the least studied aspects of the history of art is the tools the artist uses - in particular the materials that give paints their rich and varied colours. Traditionally, the focus has been on inspiration rather than the practicalities of how (or if) an artist could achieve a particular colour. This book redresses the balance. Rich in anecdote, ranging from the ancient Egyptians to the present day, BRIGHT EARTH reveals how art is more of a science and science more of an art than might besupposed.
