ultramarine definition
Ultramarine is quite a nice color. It's reminicent of the sea:
"marine" is from the same stem as "maritime", which has
a history probably as being from the old french, "mar".
It may also have latin roots.
Further than that, entymologically speaking, I cannot say.
There is an additional hypothetical connotation, of being "super sea
based".
That is to say, "Ultra" "Marine".
