Black originally had good symbolic meaning when it came to these ancient works, It was a way to show respect and authority towards what it was they made. It also made the work appear important.

Black’s meaning changes During the rise of the 16th century the significance of the color black began to change. During the height of witch hysteria the color black began to symbolize elements being supernatural and evil, as well as creating superstitions that we still believe today.

Black’s significance today In western cultures black today has a different meaning today than it did long ago. It is now seen as professional, having power and authority, as well as seeming important. Black is also the color of mourning in western cultures and in most parts of the world.

The color black in other cultures The color black in other cultures have different meanings than what we know. For example… -Black in African cultures signifies age, maturity, and masculinity -Chinese cultures see black as water, life, and the unknown -Japaneses cultures see black as non-being, night, unknown, mysterious, and anger -India sees black as laziness, anger, and intolerance
