Abstract (en)

The frequent use of verdigris in paintings from the early Gothic period to the 18th c. is reflected by the citation of the pigment in treatises. The many warnings against the use of verdigris and precautions recommended to prevent it from discoloring are set against the fact that verdigris and copper resinate have survived in many cases as an intensely green color.
