Nattier Blue
A set of delicate shades of blue, ranging from grayish ash blue to vibrant teal. Jean-Marc Nattier’s color of choice for rendering the fine fabric in many of his society women portraits. A perfect complement to the pink undertone of the flesh, the translucent dresses, the rouged lips and cheeks, and the fresh flowers.
