This volume gathers twenty-five texts of the Norwegian physicist
Torger Holtsmark. Most of them document his lifelong occupation
with the problem of colour. They are contributions to colour theory
and optics where Holtsmark picks up and develops research
trajectories ranging from Plato and Aristotle via Kepler to Goethe
and Wittgenstein. Underlying his interest in the historical
context, one always finds the question as to the genesis of image,
the determination of colour and the fate of the 'seer'. The answers
that Holtsmark finds lead him to demand a novel comprehension of
the theory of light and, in a practical way, to forge a didactic
design for an extended theory of colour as a theory of images.
