Summary/Abstract: The epithet is the most important stylistic figure of the adjective. This term means "aesthetic" or "poetic" attribute. The adjectival-chromatic semantics is broad and varied in the Romanian literature. All colors have infinite expressive potentialities. There is a personal aesthetic code of a certain literary period or a writer. In fiction, the association between the object and the color is unique. The text poetic is thus transformed into an instrument of pictoriality.
