Descripción
Pigments of various compositions, having in common that they are all made from green colored siliceous, iron-rich clays that have been used as pigments since ancient times, ground from available minerals, including celadonite, glauconite, cronstedtite, montmorillonite, and chlorite, among others. The color of green earth pigment can range from yellow-green to sea-green to greenish-gray, is translucent in oils, having moderate tinting strength and poor hiding power. It is a permanent, stable pigment that is compatible with all media. Green earth is sometimes imitated by mixtures of Naples yellow and Prussian blue.
