Perkin's astonishing discovery, engagingly told in Mauve, had fundamental effects on the development of explosives, perfume, photography and modern medicine - effects that colour everything we see today. It not only stormed the fashion houses of Paris and London, it earned Perkin a fortune and generated huge industries in the new science of applied chemistry. Instead of artificial quinine he produced a dark oily sludge that, much to his surprise, turned silk a beautiful light purple. But in 1856 a chemist called William Perkin found a way of making colour from coal.Perkin found mauve by chance, at the age of 18, working on a treatment for malaria. Before 1856, artificial colour was derived with difficulty and at enormous expense from animals, minerals or plants. Sinopsis Mauve is the beguiling story of a man who invented a colour, and in the process transformed the world around him. ![]() ![]() ![]() They have turned a whole society of Christians against Young without ever laying an eye on The Shack.
