33 specimens illustrating the relationship between colour and constitution in organic substances, 1900-1913. The series was curated between 1911 and 1913 for a display at the Science Museum, London, to demonstrate how chemical structure could be manipulated to produce dyes of a different colour. Most of these specimens were prepared by Frances Micklethwait and Gilbert Thomas Morgan at Imperial College London (Royal College of Sciences), between 1904 and 1913.
