► Yellow
In the 19th century, canaries were used in mines to anticipate firedamp bursts, the presence of explosive gas behind a wall being dug. The bird, so free outside, is faced with the harsh and repetitive daily life of miners. The yellow of its plumage is the only colour left underground. But for how long?
