Looks good, nice in satin red

Rubens red. Same colour as mine.  ;)

Was Rubens fond of this colour or is it totally unrelated?

As far as I am aware his use of this particular shade of red in many of his works was noted by other artists who gave it the name "Rubens Red".  Red was always a popular colour in painting for hundreds of years, but Rubens gave his shade special importance. ;)

But is it the same shade of red as used on your car, Lizzie?

Artistic licence perhaps. :y :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

Of course it's the very same shade - Rubens painted it for her himself!  8)

I believe Mr Rubens was partial to painting big bosomy women, Ron. :)
