271 Years Before Pantone, an Artist Mixed and Described Every Color Imaginable in an 800-Page Book

I found this article on a website called Colossal on a book or should I say journal which was written by A Boogert a dutchman in 1692. It is especially interesting as it relates to my last post on getting to know your materials. Have a look at his fabulous colour journal. Thank you Colossal for the great article.
