Folio. (20) ff. This fine contemporary press book is divided into four sections, each accordion-folded to permit easy display of the plates. Twenty-two vivid colorplates, printed with transparent lithographic inks on metal set type-high, demonstrate the color theory explained in the first section. The remaining three sections illustrate "The Quartered Spectrum," "Families of Analogous Color," and "Complementary Pairs." Unbound, as issued, in a white acrylic chemise and a handsome oak box.
