A little #bluesday inspiration from #BKMEuropeanart: Unlike red, white, purple, or black, blue appears to have had little symbolic value in Western dress codes until the 12th century. Blue soon became associated as well with royalty and, by the end of the 14th century it was, so to speak, the new black—considered to be a moral and honest color for clothes, conferring seriousness and dignity to those who wore it. By the 18th century, blue had become the most common color worn throughout Europe and was particularly favored among the fashionable classes. The sitter for this portrait, Doña Mariana has been depicted with the conspicuous luxury that befitted her high social status in Spanish colonial Peru. She wears an ankle-length gown called a tobajilla, intricately embroidered in silver and gold over a costly blue And white striped satin or silk fabric. #infinitebluebkm ?⠀
