When we were in Italy we just had to take a gondola ride. While doing so we saw a small shop with an artisan working in the window. Since it was festival time, we bought one of his more artist pieces. It was sunset when we stopped at a restaurant and I joked with my wife about the old sailors’ superstition. Then to make things a bit weird, a funeral barge went by with attending gondolas that caught the color of the sunset.
Since this is the second Word Riddle of the day, it contains clues for two classic written pieces. Think you can find them without further hints?

One is a short story, the other a play. Both are as well known as their authors.

Another Hint: Niston has the hue, but not the intensity and that is a clue in itself.

The play has to be Merchant of Venice.
Could the short story be the Mask of the Red Death?
