Modern Chromatics


 
Published in 1879


    Modern Chromatics explained many concepts that were still relatively unknown, such as the difference between additive and subtractive color mixing, the color spectrum, and he thoroughly described the three colormaking attributes of hue, saturation, and value.  It is one of the books that is still precise today.
