Color science and the visual arts : a guide for conservators, curators, and the curious / by Berns, Roy S.,1954-author.(CARDINAL)353722; Getty Conservation Institute,issuing body.(CARDINAL)183859;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Spectral measurements -- Color and spatial vision -- Visual and numerical color descriptions -- Metamerism and color inconstancy -- Displaying artwork -- Painting materials -- Color reproduction.In lively and accessible prose, color science expert Roy S. Berns helps the reader understand complex color-technology concepts and offers solutions to problems that occur when art is displayed, conserved, imaged, or reproduced. Berns writes for two types of audiences: museum professionals seeking explanations for common color-related issues and students in conservation, museum studies, and art history programs. The seven chapters in the book fall naturally into two sections: fundamentals, covering topics such as spectral measurements, metamerism, or color inconstancy; and applications, where artwork display, painting materials, and color reproduction are discussed. A unique feature of this book is the use of more than 200 images as its main medium of communication, employing color physics, color vision, and imaging science to produce visualizations throughout the pages.--Publisher description.

On parchment inheritance : animals, archives, and the making of culture from Herodotus to the digital age / by Holsinger, Bruce W.,author.(CARDINAL)705489;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Holsinger discusses the making of parchment past and present, the nature of the medium as a biomolecular record of faunal life and environmental history, the knotty question of "uterine vellum," and the imaginative role of parchment in the works of St. Augustine, William Shakespeare, and a range of Jewish rabbinic writers of the medieval era. Closely informed by the handicraft of contemporary makers, painters, and sculptors, the book draws on a vast array of sources—codices and scrolls, documents and ephemera, works of craft and art—that speak to the vitality of parchment across epochs and continents. At the center of On Parchment is the vexed relationship of human beings to the myriad slaughtered beasts whose remains make up this vast record: a relationship of dominion and compassion, of brutality and empathy.
