<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Your question points out an interesting discrepancy in RDA that was carried over from AACR2 (2.17B1) and should be re-examined with regard to Early Printed Resources, where RDA 3.21.2 for item-specific carrier
characteristics now includes notes about the "rubrication, illumination, and other hand-colouring...", which indeed are part of the content (expression) embodied in that specific item. Perhaps someone would like to propose a revision to RDA?<br>
<br>
As you noted, in RDA, color/colour generally is considered a characteristic of the content (RDA 7.17), when it deals with colors for illustrations, images, objects - the content of a resource. This includes all colors in the spectrum (including black and
white, all shades and tints, etc.).<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">There may also be color involved with a resource for a non-content aspect, like the binding, which could be noted as part of the carrier characteristics (manifestation RDA 3.22 Note, or item-specific data as
in RDA 3.21).<o:p></o:p></p>
