Origins and History
Yellow is a color that has been present in art and history for millennia. Its origins can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where it was often used in decorative arts and religious iconography. The Egyptians used yellow ochre in their paintings, while the Greeks used it to depict the sun. During the medieval period, yellow became associated with betrayal and cowardice, as Judas Iscariot was often depicted wearing yellow robes. However, it regained popularity during the Renaissance, when artists such as Titian and Michelangelo used it to create vivid, expressive works of art. In the 19th and 20th centuries, yellow played a significant role in the development of modern art, with artists such as Vincent van Gogh and Wassily Kandinsky using it to evoke emotions and convey meaning in their paintings. Today, yellow remains a popular color in art and design, associated with warmth, happiness, and creativity.
