Goethe's Visual World cover

Goethe's ideas on colour and imagery crossed many borderlines: those of artistic processes and philosophical aesthetics, art history and colour theory, together with the science of perception. This investigation into his writings ranges across art from Antiquity to Goethe's literary work.

the impression one carries away on closing the book is of the immense sense of intellectual ferment which characterised Goethe's age, and a search for ways of reappraising human beings' relationship to their environment in both spiritual and physical terms. -- Susan Halstead Susan Halstead
