Old Holland Oil Paint set Standard Colours No.1 - 10 x 40ml

Founded in 1664 Back in the day of the Dutch Masters Golden Era of Painting, Old Holland has over three centuries of experience making artist paints. The tradtional recipes and methods of manufacture are still the same as they have always been, making this a popular choice for artists wanting the highest quality paint.

Old Holland's large range of oil paints are densely pigmented colours with the highest degree of lightfastness. Traditional, non-lightfast pigments were replaced with modern lightfast pigments with the same colour characteristics as the traditional ones. Thanks to the highest possible concentration of pigment in each colour, the paint has an unprecedented strength of colour.

Within the unique range there is a wide range of opaque and transparent colours, each with the highest possible brilliance (intense) and clarity (clean) characteristics. The only medium used for these oil paints is cold-pressed extra virgin linseed oil, used to obtain optimum oxidisation (drying) of the paint. This increases durability and brushstroke spread. Together, these characteristics result in an oil paint of unequalled quality.
