Red is not half-measured; it evokes various emotions, each as intense as the next: honour, danger, shame, anger, desire, strength, love, etc.
It is one of Rothko's favourite colours, it is the colour that covered the walls of many Pompeian domus, and it is also the colour that warms the paintings of Georges de La Tour. Red is also the drapery of the Virgin's dress or the turban of Van Eyck's famous portrait of a man. And the list is long: Champaigne's Richelieu, Annibale Carracci's butchers, Chardin's strawberries.
You will see, it is everywhere!
