How much for color?


















Just give me the black and white then. All those old statues I/you/we learned about in art school? Supposedly they were a festival of festive colors! I knew things like eyes were typically jewels eventually plundered by thieves, but UV lighting has now revealed what many of their original colors were. Like historical photos, seeing things in color when you’re used to the rest of a period being black and white changes your perception, as if they’re somehow now fake. Pigmentus, what say you?
