The Chemistry of Art

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.
