Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The CD offers a huge store of information about each of the many pigments stored on its database. Conservators and conservation scientists especially can use this CD to enhance their work.

The database works on numerous levels; it includes all the background information about each pigment:
· Basic data (composition, associations and notes)
· Morphology
· PLM data - how pigment looks under microscope, essential for identification
· Other data references including abstracts
· Images - thumbnail and full size - giving text information of where the image is from

Searches can be refined down to the smallest detail; for example pigments can be identified by optical properties.

* Detailed, comprehensive coverage of the historic pigments
* Full analysis of physical properties and historic references
* Searchable and user-friendly database structure
