Printing Colour 17001830 offers a broadranging examination of the rich period of invention, experimentation and creativity surrounding colour printing in Europe between two critically important developments, fourcolour separation printing around 1710, and chromolithography around 1830. Its 28 fielddefining contributions, by 26 leading experts, expand the corpus far beyond the beautiful, already wellstudied images produced in European hubs like London and Paris. The chapters unveil the explosive growth in the production and marketing of colour prints at this pivotal moment. They address the numerous scientific and technological advances that fed the burgeoning popularity for such diverse colourprinted consumer goods as clothing, textiles, wallpapers, and ceramics. They recontextualise the rise in colourprinted paper currencies, book endpapers and typography, and ephemera, including lottery tickets and advertisements. This landmark volume launches colour printing of the long 18th century as an interdisciplinary field of study, opening new avenues for research across historical and scientific fields.
