A two-page article from Baldwin's Textile Designer (September 1889) on how colors interact in patterned textile fabrics. It covers primary, binary and tertiary mixed colors, complementary colors, simultaneous contrast, and how juxtaposed colors modify each other's apparent hue. It also notes how thread direction and viewing position change the look of a fabric, with practical advice for designers, dyers, printers and dealers.
