Venice Colour Palette - Confessions of a Colour Snob

An intense earth red. Unlike light red, which is yellower and Indian Red which is bluer, it is a distinct rich red favoured by Titian and originally sourced from quarries near Venice. Derived from the mineral hematite, variations in earth reds occur according to where the pigment comes from due to there being different concentrations of hematite in soil. Venetian Red is now a Synthetic Iron Oxide Red providing greater consistency of colour and texture. Also known as a caput mortuum.
