Colour in Art by Stefano Zuffi (9789461300614)

Description - Colour in Art by Stefano Zuffi

Every colour has many aspects to it, many variations, and meanings. Red can mean passion, or suffering, or love, or anger, for instance. How are these aspects represented in works of art? From Titian and Bosch to Matisse and Warhol, and in design and fashion, colour is omnipresent, and incredibly varied in symbolism. Paintings use colours to convey a message as much as just for surface appeal. This fascinating book focuses on the most important colours in art: red, blue, yellow, black, white, green and gold, and looks at them through some 200 beautifully printed works.
