Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating world of colour and its impact on the human mind. The author, writing in the mid-19th century, delves into the science of colour theory, arguing that colour, like music, is governed by mathematical principles. He critiques existing theories of colour, proposing his own system based on the primary colours of red, yellow, and blue. The book analyzes the interplay of light and shade in creating colour and the concept of "contrast," which forms the basis of harmonious colour combinations. The author goes beyond merely outlining colour theory, exploring the philosophical implications of beauty and its role in elevating the human experience. He suggests that an understanding of colour harmony can enhance the beauty of everyday life, from interior design to fashion, and contribute to a higher form of civilization. This book offers a unique and insightful perspective on the aesthetic principles that govern colour and its power to shape our perception of the world.

An interesting treatise on color theory by the Scottish artist, interior decorator, and art theorist, David Ramsay Hay, outlining his unique and somewhat idiosyncratic views on color harmony. The volume includes fourteen handsome leaves of plates engraved by William Home Lizars, featuring eighty-six on-laid color samples designed by Hay. Born in Edinburgh, David Ramsay Hay (17981866) exhibited an early talent for drawing. His mother, Rebecca Carmichael, was a noted poet and friend of Robert Burns, but her husband's early death left the family penniless. Her brother, David Ramsay, a banker and proprietor of the Edinburgh Evening Courant, assumed responsibility for the education of his young namesake, who worked for a time as a "reading boy" in his uncle's printing office. At fourteen, he was apprenticed to Gavin Beugo, a heraldic and decorative painter in Edinburgh. It was then that Hay met his fellow apprentice and lifelong friend, painter David Roberts, to whom The Principles of Beauty in Colouring Systematized is dedicated. As partner in a successful interior decorating firm in Edinburgh, Hay was commissioned to help decorate Abbotsford for Sir Walter Scott and Holyrood Palace for Queen Victoria as well as both the National Gallery of Scotland and the hall of theSociety of Arts, London. By the early 1840s, he had been appointed "decorative painter toHer Majesty, Edinburgh." "From the outset,Haytook an interest in the theoretical side of his work and in 1828 published a slim volume, theLaws of Harmonious Colouring. The work ran to six editions in nineteen years, each edition increasing in scope, and was essentially rewritten after the fourth edition.Heartened by his success,Haygained confidence in his theoretical positions and proceeded to produce a series of involved works during the 1840smostly published in expensive editions byWilliam Blackwood & Sonson subjects including the harmony of form, the principles of colouring, and the role of symmetry and proportion in defining beauty.Picking up on[George] Field'sideas of quantitative analogies between music and colour,Haydeveloped this principle into a complex system of so-called 'harmonic ratios' which supposedly permeated all forms of natural and manmade beauty and which he expounded in great detail in hisPrinciples of Beauty in Colouring Systematized(1845). Most ofHay'sworks were illustrated from his own designs. Although most of his ideas are completely discredited today and dismissed as pseudo-science,Hay'sinfluence in his own time was extensive" - DNB. In The Principles of Beauty in Colouring Systematized, Hay writes extensively about what he here describes as "the analogy.between the harmony of colour and that of sound," insisting that "the harmony addressed to the eye, like that addressed to the ear, is of an exclusively mathematical nature," and in the concluding chapters offers what he calls "a new system of chromatic harmony." In addition to the fourteen plates accompanying Hay's text and illustrating his ideas at rear are eight pages of publisher's advertisements announcing the "Works by D.R. Hay, Lately Published" and reprinting excerpts of notices and reviews from various publications praising Hay's works. A curious publication setting forth the theories on art, beauty, and color, illustrated by a series of color plates, of an interestingif eccentricScottish artist. DNB (online).
