Summary/Abstract: In this article we aim to highlight the importance of the visual and the chromatic in Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette's texts. The materials used were the four novels translated into Romanian: The Vagabond and Duo, translated by Ovidiu Constantinescu, Chéri and The End of Chéri, translated by Mona Rădulescu and Corneliu Rădulescu. For each novel, the occurrences of the nuances we have focused on will be mentioned and exemplary contexts will be provided. Most of the time, the colors chosen are not random, highlighting absconding meanings, which, at first reading, can be considered insignificant.
