About Ultramarine Blue
Ultramarine blue, derived from Latin Ultramarinus, translates to ‘Beyond the Sea’ because it was imported from overseas by Italian traders in the 14th and 15th centuries. Embodied in its name, Ultramarine Blue is a superlative blue, derived from the Lapis Lazuli stone. Back then, this brilliant blue came at prohibitive costs, unaffordable, yet highly demanded by great artists like Michelangelo, Rafael, and Vermeer. Its extensive history and demand has only grown over the years and it manages to transcend time, leaving its mark.
