An illustrated guide to the history and symbolism of colors, as used in artworks through the ages, from prehistory to the present day.
Color, with its power to impart meaning or express emotions, has fascinated human beings for millennia. This comprehensive, illustrated guide demonstrates how color has been used in art through different periods, cultures, and art movements: from the black, red, and white pigments first used in prehistoric cave paintings to the muted tones of Gabonese Punu masks replete with spiritual meaning, or from Andy Warhol’s golden Marilyn Monroe with her striking hues taken from the world of advertising to the distinctive outrenoir (beyond black) of the late Pierre Soulages.
