Van Gogh x Van Gogh Museum Watercolour Pocket Box Set 12 Half Pans

This artists creation from Royal Talens was developed in collaboration with the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.

A compact watercolour set with twelve shades inspired by the colour palette of Vincent van Gogh's Dynamic Self-Portrait with Grey Felt Hat in which he used complementary colours. This special edition of the Van Gogh pocket box is bright orange, like the small stripes of orange paint that can also be seen in the halo around the head in the self-portrait. This makes the water colour pocket box a true collector's item.

Van Gogh water colours are rated as a student and artist level paint range. They feature brilliant, transparent, and intense colours with high tinting strength. Most colours are rated with the highest degree of lightfastness +++(100+ years under museum conditions) with a few colours rated just one step below at ++ (25-100 years under museum conditions).

Thanks to the purity and uniform viscosity, these water colours are easy to work with and easy to mix. Proudly produced in Holland with stringent quality control for a consistent experience with every purchase.

This 12-half pan water colour set is packed in a plastic pocket case, and also includes a round synthetic hair brush (size 6) and a mixing tray.

About the brand

The history of Royal Talens goes back to 1899. In that year Marten Talens founded the 'Dutch Factory for Paints, Lacquers and Inks' in the Dutch city of Apeldoorn. As a family business it concerned itself initially with the production of office supplies and inks. Since then the company has expanded to encompass many brands and manufactures oil paints, inks, pastels and many highly sought after product ranges.
