Resolute Lone violet

From the Latin resolutus, unwavering — used as a color modifier in literary contexts for hues that read as committed and unmoving. Resolute blue, resolute green: the saturation is full, the hue holds its position without shifting under different light. Sits in the bold-bucket center alongside strong and true, with slightly more focus on stability than presence.

Middle English lone, shortened from alone. As a color modifier, lone implies a solitary-and-singular-and-isolated quality, the visual register of Caspar-David-Friedrich-Wanderer-and-lone-pine hand-solitary-and-singular-and-isolated Caspar-David-Friedrich-Wanderer-and-lone-pine-and-Romantic-vista loned-and-solitary-and-singular-and-isolated surfaces under Caspar-David-Friedrich-Wanderer-and-lone-pine-and-Romantic-vista mountaintop-and-empty-shore single-figure-light. Sits at the modifier-and-mood end of the grid, parallel to void and drear in usage.

Viola odorata, the European sweet violet — small, fragrant, and the original meaning of the color name in English (the Violet of the rainbow). The color refers to a fresh sweet violet blossom in late winter: a saturated, slightly red-shifted deep blue-purple with the matte finish of small five-petaled flower. Cooler than amethyst, warmer than indigo, with the perfumed weight of a flower used in Roman garlands and Victorian eau de toilette.
