Unlike traditional minerals, it has an intense "glow" and is remarkably transparent, making it a favorite for modern high-key painters. - Drunk-Tank Pink (Baker-Miller Pink): A specific shade of pink scientifically studied for its ability to reduce aggression. It has been used in prison holding cells and locker rooms to calm people down. - Scheele’s Green: A vibrant, deadly Victorian green. It was made with arsenic and used in wallpaper and dresses, reportedly making people sick—and even suspected of contributing to Napoleon’s death. - Mummy Brown: A rich, translucent brown once extremely popular with 19th-century artists. As the name suggests, it was actually made from ground-up ancient Egyptian mummies. Production stopped when artists (and suppliers) realized how gruesome the source was. - Indian Yellow: A bright, luminescent yellow historically made in India from the urine of cows fed exclusively on mango leaves. The practice was banned in the early 20th century due to animal cruelty. - Tyrian Purple: In ancient Rome, this was the most expensive color in the world. It was extracted from the glands of thousands of sea snails; it took roughly 10,000 snails to dye just one toga. - YInMn Blue: Discovered accidentally in 2009 by Oregon State University researchers, this was the first new blue pigment discovered in over 200 years. It is incredibly stable, non-toxic, and more vivid than Cobalt or Prussian blue. - Vantablack: While technically a material (carbon nanotubes) rather than a pigment, it is often called the "darkest black." It absorbs 99.96% of light, making 3D objects look like flat, 2D voids. - Olo (Discovered 2025): A "new" color discovered by scientists at UC Berkeley. It is described as an unprecedentedly saturated blue-green (teal). Under normal conditions, our eyes blend light across different cone cells, but by using a specialized laser (the "Oz" device) to stimulate only a single type of cone, participants saw a hue more intense than anything found in the natural world.
