Euurrrrrgh! Fish! I hate the stuff!

Interestingly, it was common in Romania, before WW1, for the nobility to use white as the colour associated with mourning. This is in itself a throwback to the original Roman Empire Where the same colour was used to denote mourning, respectability and nobility. In the western half of Europe we adopted the use of the colours Black and Imperial Purple. In Italy,White is still the predominant colour of floral tributes.
