An introduction to the study of colour vision

Parsons, John Herbert, Sir, 1868-1957 · 1915 · Cambridge [Eng.] University Press; New York, G. P. Putnam's Sons · 15 pictures

A 1915 scientific textbook on colour vision by John Herbert Parsons, published in Cambridge, England, and New York, aimed at students and researchers of physiological optics. The four pictures are plain line graphs with hand-plotted data points, fitted curves or straight lines, and dashed reference lines on pale cream paper, offering a designer a clean, restrained model for technical charts and data plots.
