Pigment Description
A staple of painting since the 18th century, Prussian blue still looks fresh and vibrant on a palette next to modern blues. Deep and rich in colour, our formulation has a violet undertone reminiscent of ultramarine blue. Authentic iron ferrocyanide cannot be utilized in acrylic due to its instability in alkaline solutions, so Tri-Art has expertly formulated this hue based on phthalo blue (red shade) and dioxane violet. Use as a mixing compliment, or as a glaze to bring out its deep violet-blue undertone.
