Recenzii
"This volume focuses on a relatively unstudied topic and treats it from fresh perspectives. The book as a whole underscores the complexity of color and the extensive relationships that color can bring to light among the worlds of learning, naturalexperimental philosophies, and artisanal practices."- Pamela O. Long, Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. LXX, No. 4, pp. 1520-1522
