Color has always been essential to both life and art. How could some colors be lost over time, and what are the textual and visual clues for reconstructing them? What role did color play in constructing and (re)presenting identity?

Join the Society of Design Arts and AIGA Baltimore for online talks that will explore the connections between color, emotion, and identity in the ancient world.
