Liquitex Heavy Body Artist Acrylic 59ml Permanent Alizarin Crimson Series 2

A highly transparent vivid red with a blue undertone. This is a mixed pigment hue - a recreation of true alizarin crimson pigment, which doesn?t offer the required lightfastness for artists. Alizarin crimson was first used as a dye obtained from the roots of the madder plant by the ancient Egyptians.
