Zecchi Pigments Naples Yellow Light

This is what the entry from the Zecchi site looks like to help in ordering: “ Naples yellow light. Chemical composition: Antimoniato di Piombo .” Here is our best guess at the equivalent in Italian. This is from the Italian portion of the site: “ GIALLO DI NAPOLI CHIARO. Composizione chimica: Antimoniato di Piombo.”

This appears to be different than Zecchi’s Giallorino colors. There is a Naples Yellow light and deep as well as Giallorino light and deep. The color swatch for this color was drawn from an academic article which did not distinguish between the two forms of Naples Yellow Light and Deep, so given the bright yellow nature we inferred that this was the Naples Yellow Light.
