Gamblin Artists' Oil Color, Cobalt Green is an undervalued cool green with moderate masstone and very muted tint. No combination of blue and yellow will yield this unusual color. Cobalt Green, which is made from a compound of oxides of cobalt and zinc, found favor with 19th century landscape painters after 1856. It is a pure green, completely lightfast and opaque, with low tinting strength. Cobalt Green makes valuable greys and is especially valuable for painting the American Southwest where green should be kept to a muted minimum. Pigment: Oxides of cobalt and zinc (PG 19), Vehicle: Alkali refined linseed oil, Lightfastness I, Series 4, Semi-Transparent
