Before we proceed, would you be so kind as to prove your bona fides?
First, kindly explain the applicability of that article to producing colorimetrically-correct reproductions of art. After all, all it is is an informal three-page beginner's-level misleadingly-oversimplified attempt to explain to amateurs why color consistency can be hard to achieve. It perhaps might maybe be useful to get Uncle Bob to stop complaining about why the bridesmaid's dresses look a bit redder than he remembered them, but it's so far removed from the discussion at hand that it ``isn't even worng.'' Frankly, I don't know why the ICC commissioned somebody to author it -- let alone why they accepted it and continue to publish it.
Second, please sketch for us your own workflow for copy work. How do *you* create a colorimetrically-correct reproduction of a piece of art -- or do you just throw up your hands because it's too hard?
Cheers,
