In Chroma, his most poetic and lyrical book, Derek Jarman explores the uses of colour. Shifting across the spectrum and from the medieval to the modern, he draws on the work of great colour theorists from Pliny to Leonardo.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInterwoven with these musings are evocative memories from Jarman's childhood and illustrious career, along with reflections on his deteriorating health. Written a year before Jarman's death, and as his eyesight was failing, this is an intensely personal work; a paean from an artist seeking to memorialise the extraordinary power of colour even while it receded from his own life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winstones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36227818946713,"sku":"9780099474913","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/products\/9780099474913_4a2e6822-f37d-4e24-b06c-1386d9d31897.jpg?v=1600691128","url":"https:\/\/winstonebooks.pro\/products\/9780099474913","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
