Colour, Colour Measurement and Colour Change, the first new book in the expanded Science for Conservators series, explains the science of colour, colour measurement, and colour change for conservators in a clear and comprehensible way, elucidating the topic for those with no scientific background.

The book explains how and why we see colours and how colour and colour change can be measured, as well as clarifying why these would be done in a conservation context. It then examines the ways in which colour can change - such as darkening, yellowing, fading, blanching, and patination - illustrating these in different types of cultural heritage materials, including metals, varnishes, plastics, textiles, and paints. The final chapter explores how colour change can be reduced in different types of storage and display settings, and, in particular, what can be done to protect against damage by light, damp, and pollutants.

Colour, Colour Measurement and Colour Change is an invaluable introduction to all aspects of the science of colour within conservation. It is suitable for students in undergraduate and postgraduate conservation programmes, as well as being a useful reference guide for practising conservators.
