WINSOR AND NEWTON'S

MOIST WATER COLOURS.

Winsob and Newton's Moist Colours retain, (from processes and treatment known only to W. & N.) their solubility and dampness for an unlimited period, and a box of them, though laid aside for two or three years, will be found, when required again, equally Moist and serviceable as when purchased. They preserve these qualities to the fullest extent in Tropical climates, and are, on this account, particularly adapted and recommended to parties going out to India, not being liable, like the dry cake colours, to crack and crumble from the effects of atmosphere and heat.

In sketching from Nature, and when depicting transient and evanescent effects, the advantages of the Moist Colours must be evident, as from their readiness of application, colour is at once produced, a result unattainable by the old and tedious method of rubbing dry cakes, during which not unfrequently the effect and with it the thought of the artist, had vanished before the material could be obtained. It is this quality which at once brought Moist Colours into note, and which has been the great cause of their popularity with the artist, who with the evidence of his works before him, produced by their means, many years ago, still uses them as his only materiel.

The colours are placed in thin porcelain pans, in size similar to the usual dry cakes, and they are afterwards inclosed in tinfoil for security. When required for use, the foil is removed from the pans; which then present a surface of colour, at once obtainable in large or small quantities, by the application of a wet brush.
