Attempts to re-create the vibrant colours of the natural world have not always been easy - before the 19th century, "ultramarine blue was extracted from Lapis Lazuli. Vermilion was as costly as gold." Behind the unassuming black cover of this book is a vivid celebration of the world of colour, from an Indian man's bright yellow turban to the delicate silvery-blue of a pile of small fish. This is a fascinating look at the long relationship between mand and colour, looking at the art, textiles and natural influences of different cultures around the world through a series if captivating pictures by travel photographer Jamie Marshall. - Wanderlust
