Origins and History
Purple has a rich history and fascinating origin. The color dates back to ancient times and was highly prized in the Roman Empire, where it was reserved for royalty and the elite. The dye used to create the color was made from the murex shellfish, which was labor-intensive and expensive. This made the color even more exclusive and valuable. During the Renaissance period, purple became a symbol of power and wealth, with many artists using the color in their religious paintings and tapestries. The popularity of purple continued into the 19th century, where it became associated with luxury and extravagance.
