ABOUT ARTWORK
Of the many theories advanced, the one in current favor is that there are 3 general kinds of cone pigments: one for sensing the long (red range) wavelenghts, one for the middle (green range) wavelenghts, and one for short (blue-violet range) wavelenghts. These primary levels of response are thought to mix to form all color sensations, just as additive mixtures are made from colored lights. Yellow, for instance, is a sensation triggered by activation of the green-sensitive cones predominate in the retina, with relatively few blue-sensitive cones. The idea of 3 basic kind of cones is called the Trichromatic Theory.
It was first advanced in 1801 by the English physicist Thomas Young and developed in the mid-nineteenth century by the German physicist Hermann von Helmholtz.
