The mallow plant in French is ‘mauve’, & this is where the colour derives its name. Discovered in 1856, the colour became so popular that the 1890s were known as the ‘mauve decade.’ As for mallow, the ancients often used it in erotic potions. #FolkloreThursday Img: Cicely Barker
In 1856 William Henry Perkin (1838–1907) tried to make quinine from coal tar & discovered it could be used to create purple dye. He called it mauveine. Fabric dyed with it didn't fade from sunlight & coal pollution; 'royal purple' clothing became more affordable #folklorethursday

I don't know what it means
That I am so sad
A legend of bygone days
That I cannot keep out of my mind. “Die Lorelei” Heinrich Heine (1797-1856)
"Sinnende Junge Frau" (Circa 1925)
Karl HOFER (1878-1955)

One of the most loved motifs from #ColouringArchaeology is the Egyptian ornament plate, which is a tribute to "The Grammar of Ornament" (1856) by Owen Jones:"in the best periods of art, all ornament was based upon nature".Maybe he would appreciate it too👉 https://t.co/uJtwWDYZIG
