The unforgettable, unknown history of colors and the vivid stories behind them in a beautiful multi-colored volume
“Beautifully written . . . Full of anecdotes and fascinating research, this elegant compendium has all the answers.” —NPR, Best Books of 2017
The Secret Lives of Color tells the unusual stories of seventy-five fascinating shades, dyes and hues. From blonde to ginger, the brown that changed the way battles were fought to the white that protected against the plague, Picasso’s blue period to the charcoal on the cave walls at Lascaux, acid yellow to kelly green, and from scarlet women to imperial purple, these surprising stories run like a bright thread throughout history.
In this book, Kassia St. Clair has turned her lifelong obsession with colors and where they come from (whether Van Gogh’s chrome yellow sunflowers or punk’s fluorescent pink) into a unique study of human civilization. Across fashion and politics, art and war, the secret lives of color tell the vivid story of our culture.
“This passionate and majestic compedium will leave you bathed in the gorgeous optics of light.” —Elle
Kassia St. Clair is a freelance journalist and author based in London. She graduated from Bristol University with a first-class honors degree in history in 2007 and went on to do a master’s degree at Oxford. There she wrote her dissertation on women’s masquerade costumes during the eighteenth century and graduated with distinction. She has since written about design and culture for publications including The Economist, House & Garden, Quartz, and the New Statesman. She has had a column about color in Elle Decoration since 2013 and is a former assistant books and arts editor for The Economist.
一開始還不錯,掉書袋的部分很喜歡。後來就有點膩味瞭,像是顔色百科大全。3.5

評分印刷美爆瞭,這纔是紙質書的精華T T 前半部分直到紅色都還風格迥異,但是後麵的顔色有點韆篇一律瞭,不知道是顔色本身無趣還是作者寫不動瞭..不過對於我這種顔控還是一本超級滿足的書

这本书叫色彩的秘密生活,听上去第一印象我不知道它具体是讲什么的。好像是个什么科普书,拿到书后一看还真是。 但我真的想不到关于色彩应该是怎样的科普?所以我还想过是不是应该是关于生活的书,难道是写生活中的多姿多彩?总之我完全没有想到,竟然是对颜色的科普。而且是分...
評分 評分这是一本关于色彩的科普读物,介绍了不同色彩名称的由来、颜料的成分、背后的故事。书籍的装帧非常精美,内封的封面和封底是由不同颜色组成,呼应主题。内页边缘有对应章节的颜色,给读者更直观的感受。不过对应“白色”“金色”等颜色明显和日常生活中的对不上,不知道是否有...
評分《色彩的秘密生活》是一本“好看”的书。书讲述了75种颜色,书本身的形态也是五颜六色,五光十色,异彩纷呈。书籍在正文内容外侧的纸张边缘,有一条两厘米宽的色条,随时提示读者你正在与哪一种颜色对话。因为彩色印刷的需要,纸张很厚,每页纸能抵得上一般书籍的两倍,拿在手...
評分作为一本介绍色彩的普及读物,这本书很好地完成了它的使命。精美的装帧配合讲述颜色背后小故事的短小精悍的文章,能带来很多的阅读乐趣。 这本书最突出的是书籍设计,在每篇讲述色彩故事的书页边上,都配合着相应的色彩,能给人更直观的感受。而整本书的页边也组合成一道变化的...
