On Vision and Colors (originally translated as On Vision and Colours; German: Ueber das Sehn und die Farben) is a treatise by Arthur Schopenhauer that was published in May 1816 when the author was 28 years old. Schopenhauer had extensive discussions with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe about the poet's Theory of Colours of 1810, in the months around the turn of the years 1813 and 1814, and initially shared Goethe's views. Their growing theoretical disagreements and Schopenhauer's criticisms made Goethe distance himself from his young collaborator. Although Schopenhauer considered his own theory superior, he would still continue to praise Goethe’s work as an important introduction to his own.

  • Sur la vue et les couleurs (allemand : Über das Sehn und die Farben) est un traité en 2 chapitres et 14 paragraphes publié par Arthur Schopenhauer en mai 1816 à l'âge de 28 ans. Pendant l'hiver 1813 Schopenhauer avait longuement discuté avec Johann Wolfgang Goethe de son Traité des couleurs de 1810 et partageait pour l'essentiel les vues de celui-ci. La base initiale de la théorie des couleurs de Schopenhauer est tirée du chapitre de Goethe sur les couleurs physiologiques qui traite de trois paires principales de couleurs contrastées: rouge/vert, orange/bleu, et jaune/violet. Cette théorie contraste avec la théorie de Newton qui propose de comprendre la lumière blanche comme la fusion d'une quantité infinie de rayons lumineux intrinsèquement colorés, et avec la vulgarisation qu'en a donné Voltaire avec sept couleurs divisant celles issues du prisme. En accord avec Aristote, Schopenhauer considère que les couleurs surgissent du mélange de l'obscurité trouble et nuageuse avec la lumière. Le blanc et le noir étant situées aux deux extrêmes de l'échelle, les couleurs sont disposées en série selon le rapport mathématique entre les proportions de lumière et d'obscurité. Schopenhauer accepte l'affirmation de Goethe selon laquelle l'œil tend vers une somme totale composée d'une couleur doublée de son spectre, ou image rémanente. Schopenhauer arrange les couleurs de telle sorte que la somme de toutes les couleurs et de leur rémanence complémentaire est toujours égale à l'unité. L'activité complète de la rétine produit du blanc. Lorsque l'activité de la rétine est divisée, la partie de l'activité rétinienne inactive et non stimulée par la couleur peut être considérée comme l'image rémanente fantomatique complémentaire que Schopenhauer et Goethe appellent un spectre physiologique.

  • On Vision and Colors (originally translated as On Vision and Colours; German: Ueber das Sehn und die Farben) is a treatise by Arthur Schopenhauer that was published in May 1816 when the author was 28 years old. Schopenhauer had extensive discussions with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe about the poet's Theory of Colours of 1810, in the months around the turn of the years 1813 and 1814, and initially shared Goethe's views. Their growing theoretical disagreements and Schopenhauer's criticisms made Goethe distance himself from his young collaborator. Although Schopenhauer considered his own theory superior, he would still continue to praise Goethe’s work as an important introduction to his own. Schopenhauer tried to demonstrate physiologically that color is "specially modified activity of the retina." The initial basis for Schopenhauer's color theory comes from Goethe's chapter on physiological colors, which discusses three principal pairs of contrasting colors: red/green, orange/blue, and yellow/violet. This is in contrast to the customary emphasis on Newton's seven colors of the Newtonian spectrum. In accordance with Aristotle, Schopenhauer considered that colors arise by the mixture of shadowy, cloudy darkness with light. With white and black at each extreme of the scale, colors are arranged in a series according to the mathematical ratio between the proportions of light and darkness. Schopenhauer agreed with Goethe's claim that the eye tends toward a sum total that consists of a color plus its spectrum or afterimage. Schopenhauer arranged the colors so that the sum of any color and its complementary afterimage always equals unity. The complete activity of the retina produces white. When the activity of the retina is divided, the part of the retinal activity that is inactive and not stimulated into color can be seen as the ghostly complementary afterimage, which he and Goethe call a (physiological) spectrum.
