Cobalt Violet (this pigment can be a redder light shade or a deeper violet shade)
A gorgeous, high chroma violet. Highly recommended. Brands differ in the cobalt violet hues they offer, and we found this one to be especially chromatic. Williamsburg’s Munsell chroma is at 14, a very bright point at this area of the spectrum where it is hard to find lightfast options.
In 2023, Golden published a vital series of tests on their colors and how they performed in mixes with various white paints. More information can be found at https://justpaint.org/astm-lightfastness-testing-for-oil-paints/.
