From the Cobalt family. Extremely lightfast, traditionally prized for its use in skies and as a part of many landscape palettes. The Cerulean Blue Deep is deeper and greener than the brighter, more traditional shades.
With pigment closely related to Cobalt and Cerulean, this chromium variation is a slightly more transparent and more neutral blue well suited for skies in landscape paintings.
The lightest variation of GOLDEN's single-pigment Cadmium Reds, this colour is highly regarded for its opacity and intensity. It is a synthesized colour first used in the early 1900's.
Cadmium Red Medium became the most widely used red shortly after it was synthesized in 1907 because it offered greater permanence and intensity than the mostly plant-based reds used up to that time.
