Lemon Yellow 

Editor: This is "Lemon Yellow," made by Geo. Rowney & Co. It seems to be pigment in a jar, and a color chart of some kind. What do you make of it? Curator: The composition, while simple, is fascinating. The rectangular grid of colors beside the glass jar creates a dialogue between standardized color and raw pigment. Note the interplay of textures: the matte finish of the chart against the reflective glass. Editor: I see that, it's very intentional. The colors are so vibrant. Is there a significance to the relationship between the lemon yellow pigment and its representation in the chart? Curator: Observe how the pure pigment in the jar contrasts with the chart's approximations. This tension highlights the difference between the ideal and the real, the source and the copy. Editor: So, it's about the nature of color itself, its properties and representation. Thanks! Curator: Precisely! It encourages us to think about how we perceive and categorize color.
