It has almost become somewhat of an urban legend or internet myth that James Clerk Maxwell created the first colour image and had demonstrated this at the Royal Institution in London in May 1861. He did present something, but what? In ‘The scientific... Read More about Maxwell’s disappointment and Sutton’s accident.

The Amber Project: A survey of methods and inks for the reproduction of the color of translucent objects (2022)
Journal Article
Trujillo-Vazquez, A., Fuller, H., Klein, S., & Parraman, C. (2022). The Amber Project: A survey of methods and inks for the reproduction of the color of translucent objects. Applied Sciences, 12(2), Article 793. https://doi.org/10.3390/app12020793

Unlike regular pigments based on selective light absorption, the so-called “effect pigments” are based on the phenomena of structural color, or selective reflectance. Structural color has appealing aesthetic qualities, such as angle-dependent hue, an...
