has gloss | eng: Bole is a color that is a symbolic representation of the color of the trunk of a tree. There is an English word bole meaning the trunk of a tree, but according to the American Heritage Dictionary, this word is simply a homograph/homophone that does not share the etymological origin of the color word bole , which derives from Latin bōlus (lump of earth) and refers to a kind of soft fine clay whose reddish-brown varieties are used as pigments, hence its use as a word for a reddish-brown color. Another name for the color bole is terra rosa. The color name terra rosa has been used as a synonym for bole since 1753. The color "terra rosa" is classified a warm red color. In art, it classified as being similar to Venetian red, but more pink or salmon. |
