This fantastic book on  the history of color, begins in Ancient Egypt with Aristotle and other early thinkers. From there, it moves on to Goethe, Ostwald, Runge, Munsell, Itten, and many other pioneering color scientists.

And who do you think concludes this remarkable line-up? To our great honor, it is Nicoline Kinch, the inventor of Kolormondo. A full page (p.153) is dedicated to her work.

In addition, Appendix 2 offers a fascinating color chart overview – an impressive collection of all the different attempts throughout history to visualize the world of color. And once again, Kolormondo is the most recent contribution to this legacy.

The book is written by Japanese Kunihiko Sugiyama, supervised by German color scientist Eckhard Bendin. Congratulations on this impressive work! 

The book has been produced in a very limited edition, distributed to for instance universities. Unfortunatly it it not for sale.
