@Stoori With cerise lips and auburn hair, crimson cloak and tunic, and details on his armour picked out in maroon and electric blue, Caesar Augustus raises his right hand in the air. He resembles, as the art historian Fabio Barry unhappily commented to the Washington Post in 2008, ‘a cross-dresser trying to hail a taxi’.

@Stoori I predict that "people of the 21st century couldn't perceive color" is going to be the future version of "in the past, the world was in black and white", that is it's not going to be something widely believed, but it is gonna be a commonly cited tongue-in-cheek explanation of the apparent chromophobia of our era.

@Stoori in upper Manhattan, all the prewar buildings have elaborate mouldings, gargoyles, fruit and other ornaments and over the years most have been painted to match the brick but I'm sure they used to be gold and colorful, I think it's just that people have only seen black and white photos that they assume they were always plain and dull.

@Stoori
That's a nice thought. Is there a source on this?@marcusboden It's a joke, referring to ancient Greek and Roman statuary etc which we're used to thinking of as pristine white marble but which turn out to originally have been painted in super-bright colours.
Sadly Brutalism was in fact always brutally boring.
