Another visual demonstration that historical clothing wasn’t dingy and monochrome.

All of these colours can be obtained from vegetable dyes, producing different shades depending on what mordant (colour fixative - alum, different metal filings, different vinegars) was used. See here and here for examples.

Not clothes, but this was a palette developed by the National Museum of Denmark based on paint residue from archaeological finds for the purpose of painting a reconstructed hall.

Apparently, they can tell from the chemical composition that the colours wouldn’t be mixed with black or white to mute them, but be used in their brightest form. Bright yellow and red was achieved with expensive dyes (orpiment and cinnabar) and was thus fashionable. (Source in Danish)

What is a man? An ecstatic little pile of pigments.

"We are watching a group of cowards, who are surrendering, under the guise of "not wanting to fight every battle" that you know, Trump puts out there, who are out Congressional representatives who are supposed to be our defenders, but are instead cowering. And as I watch them cower, I'm forced to ask: why in the world did I think that these were worthy defenders of democracy, when they could not stand up to genocide?" - Ta-Nehisi Coates

Up and down we’re going, going nowhere fast We sit and wait and wonder, when will come our chance? Washing all the dishes, waiting for the bus Time moves awfully slowly, then suddenly it's up Death is deep and empty, but forever is long Some will make a hundred, some not even one I sing in the kitchen, sometimes in the hall Some sing when they’re lonely, some don’t sing at all I drink in the evening, sometimes in the day There’s spirits in the aether, and bones under the clay Lambeg in the distance, fiddles in the pub Summer’s almost on us, and summer’s almost done I thought I had it all sussed out, but I’m not sure to be honest I’m mostly okay, well today, I’m not quite right to be honest Kids down at the hollow, some at city hall Some kids are familiar with guards and prison walls War is in the distance, war is at the door But our heads are up the chimney, our feet under the floor Death is bright and booming, lighter than wren Softer than a newborn, when life begins again
