Visible light spectrum, artwork C016 / 9849
Visible light spectrum. Computer artwork showing the visible light section of the electromagnetic spectrum. Wavelength increases from top to bottom. Below the visible light spectrum is infrared light, above it is ultraviolet light. In this graphic, the waves are simplified and arranged as linear bands, whose wavelengths increment by 50 nm

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Visible Light Spectrum" beautifully captures the essence of the electromagnetic spectrum. Created by Russell Kightley, this computer-generated illustration showcases the visible light section of the spectrum with utmost precision and artistry. Against a striking black background, linear bands in vibrant colors span across the print. Starting from violet at the top and progressing through indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, and finally red at the bottom; each band represents a specific wavelength incrementing by 50 nm. This arrangement allows us to visualize how wavelengths increase as we move down. The artist's simplification of waves adds an element of elegance to this piece. It serves as a reminder that even complex scientific concepts can be presented in visually stunning ways. Above the visible light spectrum lies ultraviolet light while infrared light resides below it - both extending beyond our human perception. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing composition, we are reminded of how essential visible light is for our existence and understanding of the world around us. From its role in enabling vision to its significance in various fields such as physics and optics; visible light acts as a bridge between science and art. Russell Kightley's "Visible Light Spectrum" print not only celebrates scientific knowledge but also invites us to appreciate its inherent beauty – reminding us that even within seemingly ordinary phenomena like color lies extraordinary wonders waiting to be explored.
