When colours were not prepared chemically, but needed to be prepared from natural elements only, purple was the costliest colour. Thus only persons from royal families and high officials could wear it. Today's images are from Athens - Greece, Bologna - Italy and Mandya - India.
जब रंग बनाने के रसायनिक तरीके नहीं थे, बल्कि रँगों को केवल प्राकृतिक तत्वों से बनाया जाता था, उस समय जामुनी रंग सबसे कीमती था, इसीलिए इसे केवल राज घराने के लोग या उच्च अधिकारी ही पहन सकते थे. आज की तस्वीरें एथेँस - ग्रीस, बोलोनया - इटली और मँडया - भारत से.

आज भी जामुनी रंग में शाहीपन झलकता है. काले रंग के साथ थोड़ा जामुनी का उपयोग करें तो शाहीपन आ जाता है. हम डिजाइनर इसे आजमाते ही हैं :)
ReplyDeleteSomeone once guessed my favorite color as Purple. The reason he stated was my royal attitude and love for aristocracy :)
ReplyDeleteNeeraj, historically purple was the royal colour, but according to the western popular perception today, purple is called the colour of depression and feeling low! So be careful. :-)
