Golden Heavy Body Acrylic - Smalt Historic Hue, 5 oz.

Golden Historical Artist Colors are authentic recreations of paint colors that have been in use for hundreds of years and were considered essential to the working palettes of past masters. As the pigments originally used to produce these colors were found to be unsafe or vulnerable to the effects of light and weather, they had not been offered in a Golden line of pure pigment colors.

Smalt Historic Hue - Smalt is ground glass of blue color and was the earliest of the cobalt pigments. Believed to be a European invention, the particles in Smalt must be coarsely ground for use as a pigment. To help pull this color from the depths of obscurity, Golden blends Ultramarine Blue with a Quinacridone Magenta, Carbon Black and generous amounts of gel medium.
