<｜begin▁of▁sentence｜>### Instruction:
Given a gradient palette that ranges from red to blue and consists of 256 colors, can you use the GradientPalette.__plot__ method in igraph to visualize the gradient on a matplotlib plot?
### Response:
import igraph as ig
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Create a gradient palette with a range from red to blue
gradient_palette = ig.GradientPalette('red', 'blue', 256)

# Plot a representation of the gradient palette
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
gradient_palette.__plot__(ax)
ax.set_title('Gradient Palette from Red to Blue')
plt.show()
