Chrysophanic

Chrysophanic is an adjective used to describe a bright golden-yellow color. It is often associated with the pigment chrysophanic acid, which is found in some plants, most notably the rhubarb plant. This acid gives the roots and stems of rhubarb their characteristic reddish-yellow hue. The term chrysophanic can be applied to any color that exhibits this rich, golden-yellow shade, evoking a sense of warmth and vibrancy. Historically, this color has been noted in descriptions of natural phenomena and in artistic contexts where a vivid yellow is desired.
