    Grès de Thiviers

    The only natural red pigment

    It was over fifteen thousand years ago that, at Lascaux * in the Périgord region of France, men immortalized scenes of their day-to-day life on the walls of their caves. Their works demonstrate                                  

    a high-level of artistic skill and an early mastery of the colours black (manganese),

    yellow and red (iron oxyde), making them a masterpiece of cave art.
