Literary analysis:
In literary texts the term “liver” sometimes transcends its anatomical reference to evoke a distinctive, earthy hue. For example, one work describes a “pure puce‐shaded liver, without any white” ([1])—using “liver” to suggest a deep, muted brown with an almost mysterious richness. In another instance, a Gordon setter is portrayed as “liver and white” ([2]), a color scheme that not only identifies the animal’s coat but also subtly imbues the description with a natural, rugged authenticity. These sparse yet evocative uses illustrate how “liver” as a color connects imagery of nature and corporeality, enhancing the sensory detail of a narrative.
  1. Colour, pure puce-shaded liver, without any white.
    — from All About Dogs: A Book for Doggy People by Charles Henry Lane
  2. I am eight years old, and I have a Gordon setter—liver and white—just as old as I am.
    — from Harper's Young People, April 6, 1880 An Illustrated Weekly by Various

This tab, the new OneLook "color thesaurus", is a work in progress. It draws from a data set of more than 2000 color names gathered from sources around the Web, and an analysis of how they are referenced in English texts. Some words, like "peach", function as both a color name and an object; when you do a search for words like these, you will see both of the above sections.
