Viridian was first produced in Paris in 1838 by the colourist Binet as a substitute for the hazardous genuine Emerald Green, which was an aceto-arsenite of copper. Traditional Viridian, a very transparent variety of Chronium Sesquioxide, was named after the Latin word for green 'viridis'. With our newly created modern and safe pigment composition, we have achieved a shade that is almost indistinguishable from the original in terms of colour, transparency and longevity.
Our Artist's Oil Colour boasts 133 colours, made from only the finest pigments. We carefully formulate each tone for stability, tinting strength and coverage. Use them thickly with palette knives or brushes, or thin them to a very fine glaze.
