ON THE MIXING OF FLESH COLORS. “Take flake-white — which is white made from lead — and, without grinding it, out it just as it is, dry, into a copper or iron pot, place it over a fire and heat it until it has changed to a yellow colour. Then grind it and mix it with some ordinary flake-white and vermillion until it becomes the colour of flesh.”
