Colours of Wes Anderson cover

Wes Anderson’s use of colour is one of his most distinguished cinematic devices and makes his work instantly recognisable. This book takes you on a visual journey through Anderson’s filmography, exploring unparalleled use of colour and unravelling the symbolism woven into each carefully chosen hue.

From the whimsical charm of The Grand Budapest Hotel to the poignant aesthetics of Moonrise Kingdom, each chapter reveals the genius use of colour in specific scenes, costumes, sets and details. Rich with stills from the movies and vibrant infographic colour palettes, and supported by special features on themes in Anderson's work, Colours of Wes Anderson  provides a visual feast that will encourage you to watch Anderson's films in a whole new light.

This is the perfect follow-up to Colours of Film (Frances Lincoln, 2023) for fans of Wes Anderson and his aesthetic.
