Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
From the invention of four-colour separation printing c. 1710 to the introduction of chromolithography c. 1830, Printing Colour 1700-1830 offers the first survey of eighteenth-century colour printmaking in and beyond western Europe, dynamically expanding print history to include such diverse consumer goods as clothing, wallpapers, and pottery.
MoreLong description:
Printing Colour 1700-1830 offers a broad-ranging examination of the rich period of invention, experimentation and creativity surrounding colour printing in Europe between two critically important developments, four-colour separation printing around 1710, and chromolithography around 1830. Its 28 field-defining contributions, by 26 leading experts, expand the corpus far beyond the beautiful, already well-studied images produced in European hubs like London and Paris. The chapters unveil the explosive growth in the production and marketing of colour prints at this pivotal moment. They address the numerous scientific and technological advances that fed the burgeoning popularity for such diverse colour-printed consumer goods as clothing, textiles, wallpapers, and ceramics. They recontextualise the rise in colour-printed paper currencies, book endpapers and typography, and ephemera, including lottery tickets and advertisements. This landmark volume launches colour printing of the long 18th century as an interdisciplinary field of study, opening new avenues for research across historical and scientific fields.
In addition to collating three hundred fifty beautiful high-resolution images, this book offers an exceptional overview of the practices, materials, and figures that contributed to bringing colour to European visual and textual culture in the long eighteenth century.
