The Chemistry of
Art
Outstanding resource pack containing a
range of cross-curricular activities demonstrating the close relationship
between art and chemistry.
The pack contains prints of ten paintings from the
National Gallery in London, and a booklet containing historical information
about each painting. Three other booklets are included - a guide to using the
pack, a booklet of six experiments for pre-16 students and a booklet of
information for post-16 students. The latter discusses the chemistry of vision,
the reasons for colour defectiveness, colour mixing and the scientific reasons
for the colour of objects.
An absolutely fascinating read the subject matter will
enchant teachers and students alike.
