The CHROMOTOPE research database (forthcoming) will compile a wide range of 19th century texts on colour. This open-access archive will shed light on how colour was described, displayed, classified and taught primarily in Britain, France and Germany but also throughout the world during this pivotal period. It will bring together visually and analytically scientific and literary discussions of colour and, whenever applicable, their colour illustrations. This research tool, based on cross-disciplinary collaboration, will be enriched throughout the duration of the project. If you wish to contribute to the CHROMOTOPE database, please let us know by using the contact form.
