66 Types of Dark Green

John Spacey, May 23, 2020

Dark greens are green hues shaded with black, often with tinges of other colors. Where light green represents youth and spring, dark green has a decidedly winter feel due to its association with evergreen plants such as pine trees and ivy that give color to winter landscapes. In the middle ages, dark green was often wore by bankers, merchants, country gentlemen and other wealthy individuals. This stood in contrast to the nobility who were the only social class permitted to wear red. For example, Mona Lisa wears dark green indicating the subject of Leonardo da Vinci's archetypal masterpiece was of the merchant class. The following are common types of dark green color.
