The T\u00fcrkisches Kost\u00fcmbuch<\/a>, painted in 1574 by Lambert de Vos, is an oft-copied album of watercolors done while de Vos was in Istanbul.

The Album of Ahmed I<\/em><\/a>, dated circa 1610 and painted by multiple Turkish artists, contains examples of both orange and true red. It also contains a couple shades of pinkish-purple, which may be meant to depict purple, pink, or a shade in between.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
