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 discusses the process of combustion and its relationship to dying and painting. Mrs. Fulhame argues that combustion is a chemical process that can be controlled and manipulated in order to create new and innovative techniques for dying and painting. She proposes that by understanding the chemical reactions that take place during combustion, artists and dyers can develop new methods for producing colors and textures. The book is considered groundbreaking for its time, as it was one of the first works to apply scientific principles to the field of art. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of science and art, and it remains an important work in the field of chemistry and art to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
