This red is a tone of Indian red, made like Indian red with pigment made from iron oxide. The first recorded use of English red as a color name in English was in the 1700s (exact year uncertain). [10] In the Encyclopédie of Denis Diderot in 1765, alternate names for Indian red included "what one also calls, however improperly, English Red." [11]
Iron(III) oxide or ferric oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula Fe 2 O 3. It occurs in nature as the mineral hematite , which serves as the primary source of iron for the steel industry. It is also known as red iron oxide , especially when used in pigments .
Raw umber (PBr7): a natural clay pigment consisting of iron oxide, manganese oxide and aluminum oxide: Fe 2 O 3 + MnO 2 + n H 2 O + SiO 2 + Al 2 O 3. When calcined (heated) it is referred to as burnt umber and has more intense colors. Raw sienna (PBr7): a naturally occurring yellow-brown pigment from limonite clay. Used in art since prehistoric ...
The color of chemicals is a physical property of chemicals that in most cases comes from the excitation of electrons due to an absorption of energy performed by the chemical. The study of chemical structure by means of energy absorption and release is generally referred to as spectroscopy .
Red lac, also called red lake, crimson lake or carmine lake, was an important red pigment in Renaissance and Baroque art. Since it was translucent, thin layers of red lac were built up or glazed over a more opaque, dark color to create a particularly deep and vivid color.

Iron oxide pigment. The brown color indicates that iron is at the oxidation state +3. Green and reddish brown stains on a limestone core sample, respectively corresponding to oxides/hydroxides of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+. Iron oxides feature as ferrous or ferric or both. They adopt octahedral or tetrahedral coordination geometry. Only a few oxides are ...
Lead(II,IV) oxide, also called red lead or minium, is the inorganic compound with the formula Pb 3 O 4. A bright red or orange solid, it is used as pigment, in the manufacture of batteries, and rustproof primer paints. It is an example of a mixed valence compound, being composed of both Pb(II) and Pb(IV) in the ratio of two to one. [2]
