The Science of Paintings Hardcover - 2001
by Contribution by P. I. Kuniholm; W. Stanley Taft; Contribution by R. Newman
This book treats the physics and materials science behind paintings--the pigments, binders, canvas, varnish, and so forth--that go into making a painting appear the way it does. It discusses the physical principles behind the colors one sees in paintings and how they change with illumination; the various types of paints and binders used in both old and modern paintings; and the optics and microscopic structure of paint films. Special appendices on dating, binders, and dendochronology are also included. 224 illus., 24 in color.
First line
This book follows two lines (science and art) that run simultaneously.
