Between the late sixteenth century and early nineteenth centuries the artist s world underwent great and significant change, by the end of this period the transition from medieval to modern colours was well under way. R. D. Harley s book applies itself to a detailed and comprehensive examination of the primary documentary sources of this crucial period, providing an unvaluable complement to the work of analytical scientists concerned with the identification of pigments.
