The colors in "The Masque of the Red Death" represent the seven stages of life. Blue, Purple, Green, Orange, White, Violet, and Black. These are the colors in order for which the stages of life go in.
The red windows in the black room cause people to appear to have the disease, as the Black Plague caused you to have red sores.
Edgar Allan Poe used the color black to symbolize death. He used this in "The Masque of the Red Death".
the number seven could be considered unlucky. and the sun rises in the east and sets in the west so the 1st chamber, the blue one, could be thought of as the sun rising and the 7th chamber, the black one, could be the sun setting which could symbolize death, night, darkness, depression etc.
The climax occurs when the Red Death moves from the blue room to the final black room and Prospero follows him in.
Prince Prospero dies in the seventh and final room of his abbey during the masquerade ball. This room is decorated in black and red, symbolizing death and blood, and is where the clock that ultimately stops his revelry is located.
Symbolism
"The Masque of the Red Death" by Edgar Allan Poe is set in a large, secluded castle during a deadly plague called the Red Death. The castle is intricately laid out with seven differently colored rooms, culminating in a black room where the climax of the story takes place. The atmosphere is eerie and oppressive, reflecting the themes of death and decay.
The layout of the rooms in "The Masque of the Red Death" by Edgar Allan Poe is a series of seven colored rooms representing different stages of life, arranged in a winding, maze-like pattern. The final, black room symbolizes death and the inevitability of mortality. Overall, the floor plan serves as a metaphor for the passage of time and the inability to escape death.
