Cotman Watercolour - Gamboge Hue
Cotman Watercolour has recently reformulated Gamboge Hue, a warm yellow pigment that closely resembles the original genuine Gamboge, renowned for its rich and vibrant colour.
Genuine Gamboge, which was historically made from the resin of specific trees, made its introduction to Europe in 1603. This pigment was initially believed to possess medicinal benefits, but it was later discovered to be toxic.
In the spirit of preserving the beauty of this vivid hue without the associated risks, Cotman Watercolour has meticulously crafted these pigments using fine art materials.
This ensures uncompromising quality, excellent tinting strength, and optimal performance for artists seeking to enhance their work with this captivating shade.
