Item description from seller

STEINHEIL, Robert. La Reproduction des Couleurs par la superposition des trois Couleurs. [4], 44, [2] pp. Illustrated with 150 chromolithographic plates. Folio, 347 x 270 mm, bound in contemporary cloth-backed boards. Paris: Berger-Levrault, 1896. A fine copy of this magnificent and rare work, which is one of the most stunning books on colour-theory. The 150 plates show a vast range of tints, and are among the finest we have seen in all of the many books of this genre. The plates are referred to as "en chromotypographie," and according to the title-page display almost 15,000 variations. Despite some insignificant marginal staining and a little foxing to the text, and minor repairs to one plate, this copy is in an excellent state of preservation, with the plates extremely fresh and the cloth binding in fresh condition A very rare book with OCLC listing only four copies in the US, at Yale, The Getty, University of Wisconsin and the National Gallery. The Book of Colour Concepts 194.
