A few modifications and com binations Of colors are representative Of nearly all tha commonly occur, so that actual experiment with these fey helps to interpret a wide range. The purpose Of the bool is not primarily to present a new or original theory Of 0010] but to Offer some analyses Of color effects, and to give series Of typical and interpretative experiments, togethe with references to examples in nature and art.
