The "Theory of Colours" typically refers to various scientific and philosophical ideas about color perception, mixing, and the nature of color itself. One of the most notable historical contributions to the theory of colors comes from the work of Isaac Newton in the 17th century. Newton's experiments with prisms demonstrated that white light can be separated into a spectrum of colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet) when passed through a prism.
