不是所有的颜色,都这么纯粹

Not All the Colors are that Pure

翻开中国传统色谱,会发现其中没有蓝,最多的却是一个"青"字。中国的颜色独有一种天然雅致,自带一味幽谧香气,便是连名字也都取得动人之极。想来先人们在为这些颜色取名之时,也是心如素布,以致这颜色之中,有了草木的呼吸,有了山水的波纹,也有了时日渐移的岁月绵长。

If you look at Chinese traditional color atlas,you will find there is no color"blue"inside.Instead,the color"Qing(blue or green)"appears quite often.The ancient people must be like a piece of plain fabric when they gave name to the colors so that they have the breath like grass and wood and ripples like water and the feeling of the gradual passing of time.
