16 Types of Fuchsia

 ,
Fuchsia is a bright pink color composed of red tinged with blue. This is based on the color of one of the first artificial dyes introduced in 1859 that was initially marketed as fuchsine. The same dye was latter marketed as magenta. As such, magenta and fuchsia are essentially the same color. Being one of the first artificial dyes, fuchsia was perceived as an unbelievably bright color in the 19th century and was popular in the fashions of the day alongside other early synthetics such as mauve. The following are common types of fuchsia.
