An Essay on Combustion: With a View to a New Art of Dying and Painting is a book written by Mrs. Fulhame in 1794. The book is a scientific exploration of the process of combustion and its potential applications in the fields of dying and painting. Mrs. Fulhame argues that combustion is a chemical process that can be harnessed to produce new and vibrant colors for use in dying and painting. She also explores the idea that combustion could be used to create new and innovative techniques for these arts. The book is considered groundbreaking for its time, as it challenged the prevailing beliefs about the role of women in science and the limitations of their intellectual abilities. It is an important work in the history of chemistry and a testament to the power of scientific inquiry in the pursuit of artistic expression.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
