PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION.
The new illustrations in this edition are facsimiles of children’s studies with measured color, made under ordinary school-room conditions. Notes and appendices are introduced to meet the questions most frequently asked, stress being laid on the unbalanced nature of colors usually given to beginners, and the mischief done by teaching that red, yellow, and blue are primary hues.
The need of a scientific basis for color values is also emphasized, believing this to be essential in the discipline of the color sense.
