The color of nature, luck, and envy, green has fascinated people for centuries. Explore its rich history through images, stories, and symbolism. The color of lush forests, spring growth, and renewal, green has also long been associated with envy, sickness, and decay. Once considered one of the most unpredictable pigments by artists, its meanings have always been complex and contradictory. This beautifully illustrated book explores the story of green through an essay tracing its significance in nature, art, religion, and culture from the ancient world to today, followed by a gallery celebrating the color in all its forms and shades.
