Notes: I read a fic a while back that referred to the portrait of Tyrian Persimmon as "Tyrian in Purple." I was amused and annoyed, since I have always seen it referred to as "The Man In Purple."

Today, I looked at the Japanese manga. The title on the painting, in English not German or Japanese, is "The Man Wears Tyrian Purple." Have we all gotten it wrong?

Just a thought.
