“Traditionally difficult to produce, and even more difficult to fix, green is not only the color of vegetation; it is also, and above all, the color of destiny.”
“Traditionally difficult to produce, and even more difficult to fix, green is not only the color of vegetation; it is also, and above all, the color of destiny. Chemically unstable, both in paint and dye, over the centuries it has been associated with everything that is changeable, versatile, and ephemeral: childhood, love, hope, luck, games, chance, and money. It was only during the Romantic period that it definitively became the color of nature and, subsequently, that of freedom, health, hygiene, sport, and ecology. Its history in the West is partly one of a reversal of values. Long overlooked, unloved, or rejected, it is now entrusted with the impossible mission of saving the world.”
Michel Pastoureau, Vert – Histoire d’une couleur, 2013
