Scheele's infamous green, Mondrian's expensive red, the terrifying secret of the pigment 'Mummy Brown' or the tragic beauty of cherry blossom pink. The stories of colour have fascinated us from the first reddish pigment in the caves of Altamira to the 1,867 colours identified today by Pantone.
In this kaleidoscopic compendium, Paul Simpson starts with the eleven basic colours to explain their role in the evolution of our species, in political persuasion and the association of a colour with freedom or oppression. The codes that each culture attributes to them cause colours to raise empires and passions; canons, oddities and whims of artists and civilisations.
The Colour Code' draws on chemists, actors, composers, musicians, mystics, poets, sportsmen... and tells stories that will change our perception of the spectrum and the way we see the world.
