Ishihara
Many of us have seen these interesting tests for color blindness. They were invented by Japanese ophthalmology doctor Shinobu Ishihara during the first World War. The test comprised 38 individual plates; 36 are displayed here behind glass in a fine poplar wood frame. The circles form a subtle viewing experience and are quite artistic in their own right. To viewers close up, one can "take the test" by looking for numbers or meandering lines. Stepping back, one can appreciate Ishihara's ingeniously colorful designs.
Dimensions:
28.5" tall x 28.5" wide x 1.5" deep
