Before 1856, when the first synthetic dye was invented in England by a chemist who made a beautiful purple color out of tar, all colors were natural. They were made in some vividly amazing ways.
Áðrenn 1856, tá fyrsta eftirgjørda litingin varð uppfunnin í Onglandi av einum evnafrøðingi, sum gjørdi vakran purpurlit úr tjøru, vóru allir litir natúrligir. Teir vóru framleiddir á veruliga undursamar mátar.
