Violet Once on Lilac

Is purple a reddish blue color or a bluish red color? A pair of purple legs somewhere in between the violet and magenta palette. And there I see a pauper in purple with a rosy rose. I ask him, what do you think of the color purple. He tells me that the word purple comes from the Latin of the word persum. Purple is a royal color in particular because it used to be very scarce and was extracted from the purple snail, which is almost extinct as a result.
