THE DUHkBlATY OF WATER
CQIDRs.

litlWito.
A committee Of lhe Burlington Fine
Arts Club was formed in 1895 to test
hv lasting qualities OF certain water
coiors. and it has just issued It's re-
port on this interesting subject.
Four pigment-madder carmine, mad
der brown, madder purple and sepia-
were exposed to dry air for thirteen
months and showed no change. After
an exposure Of thr.e yeaae in the dry
ar thre was some notable fading. The
madder carmine and madden brown
had "lost 10 per cent OF their origi-
nal DEPTH" and the madder purple and
sepla about 20 per cent" Two pig
ments exposed to the dry air, Prussian
blue and indigo, we're unchanged, but
when they had been exposed In ordi-
nary frames had deprecated from 15 10
20 per cent, losing their depth Of color.
The committee thinks by the use OF
venti.ahng frames water colors can be
better preserved. In proof of this II
was found that pigments In closed
tubes had dI,uerlorated more than when
these co.ors had been painted on pa
per slips and exposed in frames. A
frame should, so the committee be-
lieves. be so constructed that while
sthe moisture laden air can escape,
MO dust can knter" The airtight
frame is. then. likely to harm a water
color and It was thought "that the
Introduction Of some moisture absorb
ing substance" would be effective
The plan proposed is to modify TIN
construction OF the ordinary glaze'
frame by the introduction "of wir'
gauze cartridge charged with smal
bits of freshly burned lime, whicl
will remove continuously all moistur
lnclosed between The front glass an'
the thin metal sheet which Will hav'
to- serve as a blackboard The Lime
IN the cartridges would have to be ne
uswed from time TO time.
Unfortunately, this method, though
advantageous to such colons az
aureolin, rose madd,r, Indian red
madder carmine, madden brown, mad
, der purple. Prussian blue. Frencl
blue, indigo, sepia and cadmium yel
low does not do for gamboge Indian yel
low, varmillion, crimson lake and Van
dyke brCwn. The committee propose
5 mal0ing further tests of the duraDilit
= Of water colors, exposing some OF thes
in a room where there are all the dli
1.rences Of light, and another set n
a dark room, keeping The tests unde
the same conditions FOR four years.
7 In table are printed the results c
D exposurs in frames under ordinary cir
e cumstancGs and in dry air Of the seven
' .een water colors in general us'
Those in the dry air seemed 10 sure
the least. and changes and fadan
/. we're sens.biy diminished.
o The whole subject is a difficult on
p and we'll worthy OF careful stud.
