Values for Pictures Worth a Thousand Words : A Reference Manual for Realist/Representational Painters
Tucson, AZ, Apollo Dorian Press, 1989. Softcover. White wraps with color gradient illustration and black text. 278 pp. Bw and color illustrations. "In an age when standardization in manufacturing was becoming more prevalent, and artists would profit by knowing how to specifically identify and reproduce a color, Munsell had devised a system whereby colors could be isolated by where they fit upon a graded scale from white, (#10) to Black, (Zero; #0) known as VALUE. Arranged upon a vertical core with WHITE at the top, PURE NEUTRAL GREY steps between WHITE AND BLACK were created, although the darkest value of Munsell charts above BLACK is #2, which is about as dark as actual paints for artists are tubed at. The charts emploed by manufacturers of artist's colors who employ the Munsell system of Color Notation now have NINE steps of PURE NEUTRAL GREYS between WHITE at the top of a vertical core, with BLACK at the bottom where it has a value notation of #0 (zero). VG- wraps slightly discolored with minor staining and wear, slight rip at bottom left spine. Pages excellent with slight discoloration around edges.
