Imagery & Provenance意象与出处

Solar term

谷雨 · Grain Rain — "谷雨如丝复似尘，煮瓶浮蜡正尝新。"

Imagery

The film of purple a horse’s coat shows when it sweats — a violet thinned and warmed by the body.

Origin

A vivid, physical image for a colour: purple not painted but perspired, a sheen on a rounded surface. As Grain Rain’s succeeding colour it keeps the term’s softness while adding a faint heat — the season’s last spring purples beginning to take on summer’s weight.

System

Source

Fan Chengda, “Grain Rain” — on the rain that brings the hundred grains. (succeeding colour of 谷雨.)
