Gottlieb Jacob Marstaller was a professional engraver employed on a permanent basis at the court of Stanislaus Augustus in 1765 to 1785 who specialised in book illustration (title headpiece, tailpiece vignettes), as well as text illustrations. Not all his works are signed, which is why the list of potentially attributable pictures remains open to revision. As a result investigation into 18th-century old prints housed in the collections of Warsaw's National Library, almost ten new works have been attributed to Marstaller, each being an unsigned copperplate etching combined with watercolours.The copperplates most recently attributed to Marstaller confirm his high reputation in Warsaw in the second half of the 18th century; nor is it the first time that researchers wonder at how it possibly came to pass that they know virtually nothing about the life of this 'better-than-average' artist; even basic information such as where and when he was born and died.

Philosophy and visual arts seemed to agree: from an intelligible point of view, colours are submitted to the light despite the sensible fact that no light is visible without colour. The colour is submitted to the drawing as secondary qualities are to primary ones; colours are unable to create forms or figures. When Newton discovered that white differs from other colours, the latter achieved a new status especially in visual arts: they achieved a certain freedom from drawing. A long time after Newton, Kupka came. But between Newton and Kupka, Goethe wrote his Theory of colours and criticized Newton’s indifference to the visual experience. According to Goethe, colours are produced by the world itself, i.e. by a certain degree of turbidity in the air. So colours are no more obliged to give credit to the drawing as a paradigm of the forms. As Robert Delaunay says, colours create forms.
