The art of pigment
Smalt, bone black, or lapis lazuli – these are just some of the pigments used for centuries in paint production. During this tour, participants can immerse themselves in the world of pigments. Starting with 17th-century Dutch painting, they will learn more about the origin and use of pigments. A few examples, such as minerals, will be presented, inviting everyone to guess which color comes from which object. But beware, appearances can sometimes be deceiving!
The tour continues with French art from around 1850, where keen eyesight is required. By observing carefully, participants can discover unexpected and fascinating things.
