Red is a color that has been used throughout history as both good and bad. The use of red can be traced back to ancient Egyptians, where they associated it with vitality but also destruction for example in Greek murals or Byzantine clothing which signalled wealth/status. This trend continued on through many different art movements such as the Renaissance era up until modern day where artists still paint their work using this vibrant hue because it ranges so much from emotions like anger, sacrifice etcetera
