I have a matplotlib figure with 16 subplots (4 columns, 4 rows). I would like to change the color surrounding just one of the subplots (the one located at row 2, column 2). So, something like the green in this Stack Overflow question: How to change plot background color?

How would I go about doing that, without changing the surrounding colors of any of the other subplots?

I do not want to change the background color of the subplot - only the outside of the subplot, as shown in the link provided above.

You will need to place a rectangle of one fourth of the figure size in each dimension behind the axes. – ImportanceOfBeingErnest Oct 29 '19 at 23:38
