biography
THE XVIIIᵉ century saw the triumph of sanguine.
Experienced draftsmen such as Antoine Watteau (1684-1721) and Fragonard (1732-1806) widely exploited all the possibilities of its chromatic palette. They loved sanguine for the richness and intensity of its color, the finesse of its grain and its incomparable mellowness.
Artists bought it from color merchants in stick form or as a moistening powder to which they could add certain pigments.
The warm tone of this material, its relatively broad line giving the impression of flesh and muscle, is perfect for defining the anatomy of a body, the attitude of a character or the study of a drape.
