A. Gallo's Naturale 1 is a palette of special earth, mineral and plant based pigments. The natural tones in this collection, inspired by Roman Villa fresco painting, have been treasured since antiquity. A combination of delicate and intense colours makes this palette perfect for naturalistic botanical artwork and atmospheric landscapes.
Many of the colours in the Naturale Collection palettes are granulating. For bold results, these unique natural colours perform best when pre-wet with a drop of water.
A. Gallo watercolours are crafted according to a traditional recipe of raw pigments, gum arabic, local honey, rosemary essential oil, and a wetting agent. This artisanal process creates a highly pigmented and luminous paint that activates beautifully when wet.
This collection includes twelve individually wrapped half pans in a convenient metal travel tin with two mixing surfaces, a colour chart printed on Arches watercolour paper, and a synthetic squirrel hair pocket brush from series 1327, a size 6 round tip, made by Tintoretto. Packaged with genuine marbled paper made in a Florentine artisan workshop.
