Dorothy's 'Colors of Prince' Poster Compiles 66 Chromatic References from the Musician's Work

Graphic design studio Dorothy has released a special edition print titled 'The Colors of Prince' to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the musician's passing. The poster visually compiles 66 color references drawn from Prince's extensive catalog, including his custom Pantone shade Love Symbol #2, song titles like 'Raspberry Beret' and 'Little Red Corvette,' and album names such as The Black Album and Crystal Ball. Multiple purple hues reference Purple Rain, his nickname The Purple One, the lyrics of 'Erotic City' (My Purple Life), the 1985 single Purple Medley, and his Jimi Hendrix tribute cover Purple House. The fine art digital print measures 50 x 70 centimeters and is produced with a 9-ink printer on 165gsm matte art paper. Dorothy's website and Instagram provide access to the poster, which is also available alongside their other music-themed works like the World Song Map, USA Song Map, A History of Rock Music, A History of Hip-Hop, and A History of Jazz Music on the My Modern Met Store. The studio describes the piece as celebrating Prince's 'colorful music and character with the usual Dorothy twist.'
