Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Colour 37ml Venetian Red
Winsor & Newton Artists' Oil Colour Venetian Red is an opaque deep red earth pigment that is mixed with linseed/safflower oil and is an extremely permanent color with excellent lightfastness. This earth pigment called Venetian Red after the quarry near Venice where the painter Titian sourced his earth reds.
Every tube of Artists' Oil Paint contains a calculated ratio of oil and pigment based on the quantity of oil in the tube. This varies from color to color because, just as some pigments need to be ground finer than others, they also need more, or less, oil to provide optimal performance.
