It is a film photo. There is no mistake. It came from a source which stated that. It really doesn't matter whether it's a photo of a painting or not, the point remains that purple/blue colors are quite normal when photographing animals with black coats in natural light.

The characteristics of the purple/megenta - green blotches of Foveon are very very different from what you are describing with other cameras and the animals. This has been discussed before. Mysteriously enough those blotches of Foveon have shown in rock, buildings, and others with virtually the same pattern.

This isn't a subject issue, it's a Foveon issue and it's very characteristic. Of course, you never recognized this with the Merrill, so at this point after wide spread recognition by the likes of Quentin and others who were applauded for their Merrill love and work, I think it's pretty safe to say perhaps you either lack the skills to see it or just plain out deny it.

Never mind that others like the snow example with magenta stuff has been show before next to a DP2 sensor that shows what it should- white.
