About this work
A printed plate titled Plate 1 shows two colour scales: Scale 1 with six square swatches in red, orange-red, yellow, green, blue-grey and violet, and Scale 2 with a continuous band of graded hues running from crimson through red, orange, yellow, green and blue to violet and red again. The work is a 1912 print by Caroline West Van Helden, presented as a study of standard colours and a scale of hues.
