That's also what I thought, as far as we can see on the scans, there is no true red.
As you showed already, illumination does play a role. But I assume/hope that the more modern Beinecke scans are more true to color?
Although people have noted that the colors of the MS look more vibrant in person, I still think the pigment used always had a brownish component.
