The artist's palette

Alexandra Loske

The paint-loaded palettes of fifty world-renowned artists are displayed alongside the paintings the artists created using those hues, and the colours and brushstrokes employed are analysed to uncover surprising new stories about each artist and their work. Presented broadly chronologically, the artists featured in this revelatory book range from those working in the 17th century to the present day, including Artemisia Gentileschi, Paul Cézanne, Berthe Morisot, Vincent Van Gogh, Wassily Kandinsky, Georgia O'Keeffe and Bridget Riley. Each artist's palette - whether photographed or visible in self-portraits - is paired with one or more works by the artist that reflect the colours of the paint remaining on the palette.
