"The (naturally) purple hue, represented by his 'Love Symbol #2' was inspired by his custom-made Yamaha purple piano, which was originally scheduled to go on tour with the performer before his untimely passing at the age of 57," Pantone said in a press release. "The color pays tribute to Prince's indelible mark on music, art, fashion and culture."
