WINSOR & NEWTON Professional Watercolour - 14mL - 466 Permanent Alizarin Crimson (PR179)

Professional grade watercolour range with a reputation built on optimal pigment dispersion to deliver vibrant and even washes.

Permanent Alizarin Crimson is a deep, transparent crimson that offers the rich, cool red character artists love, with the improved permanence expected from modern pigments. Part of the Winsor & Newton Professional Watercolour range, it produces luminous washes, beautiful glazing effects and clean colour mixtures.

Its subtle blue undertone makes it ideal for painting florals, portraits, shadows and atmospheric landscapes, while also creating vibrant purples when mixed with blues. The transparency and depth of Permanent Alizarin Crimson allow artists to build complex layers of colour without sacrificing clarity or brilliance.

Unlike traditional Alizarin Crimson, which is known for its tendency to fade over time, Permanent Alizarin Crimson is formulated using more lightfast modern pigments. This provides the same elegant crimson hue with greatly improved archival stability, making it a dependable choice for artists who want lasting colour in finished works.
