Excerpt from Sanford's Manual of ColorIt is important, not to Artists and Colorists alone, because everyone excepting a comparatively few unfortunates, has eyes that cannot help seeing color, and color has as marked an effect upon the eye as sound has upon the ear, and, as harmony of sound is pleasing to every ear, so that Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast, har mony of color is equally effective upon the eyes even of the savage.How often is the eye offended by badly selected colors in the dress of a child or of an adult! How often an otherwise artistic costume is ruined by one false color!About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
