Enjoying Life in Living Color

Our understanding of light and color dates back to the 1600s, when an English physicist and mathematician began a series of experiments with sunlight and a special scientific tool. He demonstrated that pure white light was composed of seven different colors as seen in a rainbow. This scientific discovery laid the foundation for others to experiment with colors in a scientific manner and led to breakthroughs in optics, physics and the study of color in nature.
