Williamsburg Provence Violet Bluish

“Very close to Cobalt Violet Deep, but so luminous that it’s almost electric. Strong and beautiful.” -Williamsburg

As a mixture, this color does not appear to have been specifically mentioned, however it is worth noting that Golden published groundbreaking lightfastness testing in various white colors. The choice of mixing white may affect the performance of certain pigments. See https://justpaint.org/astm-lightfastness-testing-for-oil-paints/ for more information.

This color has been reformulated. The previous version (pre-2018) contained zinc, and the new version does not have zinc. More information on the zinc discontinuation can be found here:https://justpaint.org/zinc-oxide-warnings-cautions-and-best-practices/
