From the prehistoric cave paintings of early humanity to the bustling markets of Mesoamerica and the royal courts of Medieval Europe, Red is a journey through the profound cultural, scientific, and symbolic significance of this powerful hue.
In this fascinating exploration, author Randy Fraser uncovers how red has influenced art, religion, politics, and war across centuries and continents.
