Quote of the Day





"The colour with which nature has 

tinted the background of all her pictures, green,

 is the most suitable ground for other colours. 

It unites wonderfully well with the yellow and blue

 which have produced it; 

it heightens red, 

and there is no flower or ripe fruit 

which it does not set off to greater advantage.... 

it is both gay and modest, 

bright and tender. 

Green can only awaken amiable and gentle thoughts, 

remembrances gracious as those of spring, 

and other promises of nature: 

green gives repose to the mind, as it does to the sight." 


~ Charles Blanc, Art in Ornament and Dress
