Description
Golden Heavy Body Acrylic Viridian Green Hue
Guignet of Paris patented the process for manufacturing Viridian Green in 1859. The popularity of this bright, exceedingly clear blue-green colour led some to believe it could eventually replace all other greens – both ancient and modern. GOLDEN’s mixture of Viridian Green Hue is a useful replacement for artists familiar with the original.
